Thursday, September 6, 2012

When I fall, He is there.  When I fail a test, He is there.  When I am afraid, He is there.  When I sin, He is there.   The most faithful, truthful and everlasting relationship you could ever have is with Jesus. Our Lord God is the One and Only Being who will always be there for me no matter what.  I trust His Word and I live by His laws.  He is worthy to be praised for all He has done and will continue to do in my life and in the lives of those I pray for.  When you grow tired of trying to do this life alone, try God.  He will ease your burdens, wipe your tears and give you hope when all hope seems gone.  He will grant you such enormous peace in all circumstances that you will not lose a second of sleep at night.  You will be able to rest in Him knowing He has got it. When we rest, He works and when we work, He rests. Therefore let go and let God. Life is hard because you are trying to do it your way and your way will lead you down the open road of destruction....somewhere at some time. People that choose their own way usually are stubborn and are freedom seekers however with God all that pressure is lifted. Do you know how wonderful it is to have someone in my life that makes all my decisions and than simply shows me what to do to execute them? To have someone that manages my home, my marriage, my finances, my relationships, my health, my work? God is my handy man, my attorney, my doctor, my veterinarian, my counselor, my financier, my accountant, my partner! He grants me wisdom and discernment and guides me through every single aspect of my life and the life of my husband. Can you honestly say you aren't tired of controlling it all for yourself? That there are not days where you feel hopeless and helpless? The Lord gives us all free will to live our lives but He never said it would not come with a price. Adam and Eve chose their own path and look what happened to them! I say this with all the love I have without coming off preachy or condescending, neither of which I am, but you are not living a full life. Not like the one He created you for. His purpose for your life will have value and meaning-all of your days. So simply pray today for your life and your choices and where your life is headed doing it your way and truly seek the Lord's counsel for you and see where it leads you....you might be surprised. I pray with you today. Amen and amen!

Because of the fall, the sinner is dead, (Eph 2:5) blind (Cor 4:4), and deaf to the things of God (Isa 29:18); his heart is deceitful and desperately corrupt. (Jer17:9) His will is not free, it is in bondage to his evil nature, therefore, he will not - indeed he cannot - choose good over evil in the spiritual realm.

Rom 6:6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.
