The Way

God is Great and God is Good! We usually say that at the beginning of a prayer for a meal but it is so true in every aspect of life. He is Great! He is Good! I am thankful for being able to have my eyes open to the fact that God is real and working in my life and in the lives of others. It is so easy today to be persuaded that God isn't real and that He doesn't care about you but let me reassure you HE IS REAL. HE IS ALIVE! He is working in your life. No matter where you may be or where you are at in your life God is right there with you waiting for you to turn to Him. Ask God to open your eyes that you may see Him. He is faithful and He will show you The Way. John 3:16, 17 For God so loved the world (You) that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in HIm should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

Seek Him

"Seek My Face, Thy Face Lord Will I Seek." This verse has been running through my mind over and over again. I have been going through what some would call a "dry spell". It is where God feels very distant from me. I know it isn't because He has left me. No, He will never leave me. That is one of His promises. I just haven't been taking the time to Seek Him. I feel guilty and distant and even though I read a couple of verses during the day, I don't really Seek Him. So the Holy Spirit has been reminding me to Seek Him and let me tell you, when you seek Jesus, He is faithful and will meet you. Don't give up when things seem to be falling apart. Don't give in when it seems like no one cares. Instead you must Seek Jesus. Search for Him and let Him revive your soul. Never forget that He loves you and wants to spend time with you!

Have you met Him?

Have you met Jesus? Is He your Saviour and Friend? If you haven't met Jesus you can. He wants to meet you. He loves you and He desires a close relationship with you. He wants to share in your day, to be a part of who you are at all times. Knowing Him is the best choice you will ever make in your life. Please get to know Jesus. All you have to do is Confess that He is Lord and Believe that He died and rose again. He will come to you if you will seek Him.

Saved

Some say, “I have doubts—lots of them. What I want to know is, how can I know I’m truly saved?” You can know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you have eternal life! Romans 10:9 says, “If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” First, confess that Jesus is Lord. Say it out loud or quietly in your heart—just believe that Jesus was resurrected. He’s not in the grave. He’s God in the flesh, with power over death! Confess. Believe. You will have salvation!

His Love

Jesus Wants to love you. Have you ever thought about it that way before? Jesus Wants to love you. Not that you can do anything different to make yourself more lovable to Him because He loves you right now, just the way you are and He Wants to do that for you. If you feel like you have to change to be lovable then may I suggest that you change by reading His Word if you don't already, make a special time each day to seek Him. That's how you can change. Don't push Him away in your thoughts because you think you aren't good enough, instead cling to Him more. He will show you The Way. "When the doubts assail you, He will Never fail you. He'll be with you day and night." There is not a mother Sister, friend or brother Loves the way that Jesus can He proved His love for me When He died on Calvary He gave His life for fallen man Chorus His love (His love) is a boundless love And it reaches down and touches me (touches me) His love (His love) is an endless love That will last through all eternity Verse 2 Jesus wants to love you There is none above you You are precious in His sight He will never fail you When the doubts assail you He’ll be with you day and night

Tomorrow

Have you ever read something, a news article or overheard something and fear just begin to seize your very being until you feel paralyzed with the the emotion? Maybe you don't have that happen to you and for that I am grateful but it has happened to me. I think some would call it spiritual warfare, I call it fear because I get so afraid of the what-if's. Today I was reading some news and I began to get afraid. I tried to keep reading so that I would "be informed" but I finally just fell to me knees sobbing before God. While I was crying verse after verse kept coming to my mind so that I couldn't even be afraid. I know it was Jesus telling me not to worry. He has each and every day in control. Every person, every government, every child, every thing that happens He knows about it and is in ultimate control of this world. I do not have to worry about tomorrow or the future because GOD IS IN CONTROL and I am His Child. He loves me and will take care of me! I don't know about tomorrow, I just live from day to day. I don't borrow from it's sunshine, For it's skies may turn to gray. I don't worry o'er the future, For I know what Jesus said, And today I'll walk beside Him, For He knows what is ahead. Many things about tomorrow, I don't seem to understand; But I know Who holds tomorrow, And I know Who holds my hand. Ev'ry step is getting brighter, As the golden stairs I climb; Ev'ry burden's getting lighter; Ev'ry cloud is silver lined. There the sun is always shining, There no tear will dim the eyes, At the ending of the rainbow, Where the mountains touch the sky. Many things about tomorrow, I don't seem to understand; But I know Who holds tomorrow, And I know Who holds my hand. I don't know about tomorrow, It may bring me poverty; But the One Who feeds the sparrow, Is the One Who stands by me. And the path that be my portion, May be through the flame or flood, But His presence goes before me, And I'm covered with His blood. Many things about tomorrow, I don't seem to understand; But I know Who holds tomorrow, And I know Who holds my hand.

Hear My Heart

A friend of mine shared a song with me this morning. Hear My Heart by Jeff and Sheri Easter. It is beautiful and speaks to me. Let me share it with you. - Sometimes I feel, no one's ever been in this place before. This is hard and I'm not sure that I can do this anymore. I know some day I'll look back, and all this won't seem real, but Lord right now I need you, to know just how I feel. When there are no words to say, and no prayer that I can pray, hear my heart. When I don't have strength to try, and I've cried all I can cry, hear my heart. Cause you know every fear, and every doubt I cannot speak, you know all the ways I need you, and all the ways I'm weak, so I'll be quiet, so you can hear my heart. Every now and then, I recall a simple phrase or melody, that comforts and it quiets, lifts me up and then it carries me, far above the pain and hurt, I think will never end, the song speaks words I cannot, and it calms the fears within. When there are no words to say, and no prayer that I can pray, hear my heart. When I don't have strength to try, and I've cried all I can cry, hear my heart. You know every fear, and every doubt I cannot speak, you know all the ways I need you, and all the ways I'm weak, so I'll be quiet, so you can hear my heart.
