“...See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands...” (Isaiah 49:16, NIV) We all get dropped in life—dropped by an illness, by a divorce, by a friend who turns on you. It’s easy to feel alone and forgotten, as though you don’t matter. But don’t believe those lies and get stuck in that dark place. Every time God opens His hands, He sees your name. He’s reminded of you. You may have had some bad breaks, some closed doors, some people who didn’t do you right, but God hasn’t forgotten about your dreams or the promises He’s given you. He hasn’t forgotten about that baby you’ve been longing to have, that healing, that wholeness, that freedom you need. Stay in faith. Life happens to all of us, and you may get dropped, but remember...
"God chose the weaqk things of the world, that He might put the strong to shame." Well, I have to look no further than my own life to see that. Some by my own bad choices, and some by just a life of bad "luck", but looking at myself, I can see I'm not what "the world" would call a "success".When I was younger,I thought not advancing myself would be "the easy way out",I didn't believe in "no pain no gain."So in my immature mindset , when opportunitities presented themselves, I didn't seize them. But since mistakes you make "back then" carry over, when I grew up I wasn't at the level I "should have been".{Also, I was a firstborn and my mother spoiled me, making it easy for me, which as I got older didn't help. Now, at middle age, both my...
No one on earth is perfect. Jesus sent us here to earth, wherever we are to be a blessing, to help others, to love those who are unloved. Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven in perfect. Matt. 5.48 A condition of being free from all flaws or defects. Who can make us like this? Who can turn our life around? A friend of mine said this to me. I am not perfect and never was. I said horrible things to people. I treated them like dirt. I laughed when I was not supposed to. I have scars left by people who did me wrong. I felt horrible when when I treated others the wrong way. O God, help me please. I am undone. Jesus alone can change us. He can make us new and ready to help others. Come to...

Sometimes we get angry that our prayers are not answered, or delivered in the way we expect & at the anticipated time . But even if we don't always have all the answers to our trials, he does.heavenly father doesn't give us challenges we can't overcome. If we have faith in the midst of our trials , these difficult things can end up blessing us and others. One thing I learnt and am greatful for the spiritual impression in times of trial is to surrender. True completeness of surrender. When I pray & yet worry that my prayer in not answered, that means I still am holding on ! Heavenly father is waiting for you to let go. Surrender so God can take over. I surrender all to you my savior Jesus, Amen
How many times I've seen this--and it has happened to me.Someone who knows right from wrong, who knows Gods laws, and sees someone around him who is breaking them,but who is "popular",everyone around that person is "rooting for them","Yeah, Tommy , he got this chick and did thus and so, "Tommy" the guy tried to tell him to stop causing a disturbance, and he put his cigarette out on his shirt, then turned around and mooned him."Tommy" is so cool.! Meantime, Mr. "Do right"knowing this is wrong by Gods laws, doesn't want to get involved with people like that, and for that is brushed off as being a "square".It seems the more a sinful person "shows" or shows off, their sin the more "popular" they are.But to those of us with insight,we know...
To be with the Lord forever. To love Him and praise Him and to adore Him for eternity. Our future depends on what we do here on earth. If we obey Gods word and do what He told us to do, then our future is with Him forever. Love the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul. Love others just as Jesus loved you. Wonderful things shall happen to you and me when we do obey Gods word.
“...Trust GOD from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own...” (Proverbs 3:5, Sometimes it’s best to leave things alone. As long as you’re probing around your hurts and disappointments, trying to figure out why something happened, you’re never going to heal. You have to let it go and say, “God, I don’t understand it, but I’m not going to keep trying to figure it out. I know that You wouldn’t allow it if You couldn’t bring good out of it, so I’m going to leave it with You.” We should have a file in our thinking called “I Don’t Understand It.” When things come up that don’t make sense and you can’t find an answer, instead of trying to figure it out, getting confused and frustrated, just put it in...
