Thoughts

One measure of our love for God is what we’re willing to do to share His Word with others.
I was thinking what Christ went through for us. The Scourging, the crown of the thorns, the mockery, the spitting, the carrying his own cross, the humiliation, the crucifiction.....I cannot imagine the isolation HE must have felt!
We go through things on a daily basis, at the time it seems to be a HUGE trial, then I think of what JESUS did for me!
God does not like murmuring and complaining.....PERIOD....What HE wants from us is that we should PRAISE HIM IN ALL THINGS! When we are in the midst of a trial, look up and praise the one, who gave His all for you and me. Then ask yourself this, what have I done for Him? HE asks that we live this life for Him and to share with all who will listen what HE has done for us and what HE can do for them.
If you love the Lord, tell someone about HIM, tell them what HE has done for you.

In His Hands

This is the day that the Lord has made, I shall be glad and rejoice in it!
The Bible says to praise Him in all things, that He knows what we need before
we do and that His ways are higher than our ways.
Seems like to me that we have the directions on how to live this life
He has given us in His Holy Word......Why is it that we still have such a hard
time of doing just that? We are human that is why, and on this road
to perfection, we are going to make mistakes, we are going and say and
do things that aren't right. I remember my my Mother always saying, honey
I always love you, but I don't like you right now!
Jesus, always loves us, and He will not play games with us, time is too
short! Let us make right our wrongs and press on to the mark of our calling in HIM!
I don't know what lies ahead for me, but I do know that as long as I am hanging on to
Him and keeping his commandments that He will help me through whatever I face.
We will dissapoint each other, but Christ will NEVER let us down, His word says
that He will never leave us nor forsake us. I am thankful this morning that I
am one of the chosen. I desire to be pleasing in all that I say and do.
I long to make heaven my home....be blessed this day.
