• Getting closer

       Praise the Lord! Almost fully back to work! I praise the Lord for the time I will be fully back to work which is just days away!!!!  Only by God's strength!!! Only by His healing!!! Only by believing in the faith He offers us to believe in for God's healing!!!!

        My Doctor openly admitted with such injuries he did not believe I would be where I'm at and what I'm doing.  To God be the Glory!!!  Yet, each night, each call, and in each step I must have dependance upon God. I still catch  myself distracted at times in my attitude yet, it is amazing how little things can snap me back.

         I took my legs, back, and so much more in the strength that I had forgranted.  I can still find myself doing it.  Yet, through this, I'm learning more about dependance than Iwould have ever before. The ground is uneven and how that could possibly cause things to happen. Yet, life is uneven too which presents dangers in faith.

          Psalms are truly coming alive to me in so many ways!!!!  Recent events in our country keeps me in prayer, too!!! Yet, again, the Psalms are such a comfort. God protects His own!!! Our faith can limit us. Yet, sometimes, it takes something to happen in our lives to realize what we lost/destroyed/hurt. Yet, God can turn weakness into strength!!!

           Think of how the Hebrew children rejected God's ways over and over. They had some Kings that did evil before God.  In judgement for going against God, He would bring them on the brink of disaster with their enemies about ready to invade and destroy them. Praise God if the people repented of their sins and wrongs, God would then defeat the destruction awaiting them and protect them. If not....................  we read about it in the Old Testament and see it in history. Yet, no matter where the Jews are scattered in this world God watches over them.  Isreal is a Nation again!!!!! God is amazing but how many 1,000's of years did it take for prophecy to be fulfilled?

              We are living in exciting times. So much is at stake. Will we seek God or seek man? It is a free will choice God gives each of us.  Do we seek Him sincerely or go through the motions of it to impress others? Or, go through the motions as we see others do it or suggested to do it by our Pastor but lack to put our whole hearts and lives into what we are doing.  Are we just building more of a knowledge base or are we deepening a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as we sincerely apply it to our lives. When we read scripture does it come alive to us are are we reading it just like another novel? Is the Word of God living in your life?

              If faced with impending death/destruction would you cry out to God to save you, go blank, or let out empty words?  If the Word of God is living in your life alive in full belief, you would cry out to God to save you from your heart. How many times did God save the Abraham's generation of children? Who has a Nation today that is under threat of attack by neighboring countries and still a nation? Praise the Almightly Lord God of Creation  who protects His own as He is our Refuge, High Tower, and so much more!!!!
