Our Souls have been won

My burdens weigh heavily on my back.  How does God love someone like me? Why isn’t He giving up? He is a Champion, that’s why, and He only knows how to win. He won our souls on the cross so that we would never have to be nailed to our own. His Grace is Our Gift and His Truth is that He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! Amen

Stand for Christ

There is a point we all reach in life.  It may happen young and it may happen old, and for some, it may never happen, unfortunately.  Our life will always place us in the direction of God, and simply being a good person or living a good life will not be enough.  Sometimes it takes hitting rock bottom or losing someone very dear to us, but it happens.  We can choose to be angry at God when this happens and you know what our God is big enough that he can carry that burden.  We must always remember that the decisions we make in our life carry consequences with them.. It is very easy to stand up and blame God, but the truth is we put ourselves in these situations most of the time.  There are people who have inherited some secret sins and curses, but God will always provide a way out, we simply have to have our eyes open.  He answers our prayers in the simplest of ways, so stop looking for the floating mountain to decide that God is a part of your life.  Realize that when something goes your way but not exactly how you expected, our lives are not our own, He is in control.  I need to remember this is my daily life because I am always wanting the quick fix, I have a hard time being patient, especially where God is concerned.  I have been to rock bottom and have suffered through many evil things throughout my life and yet as angry as I have been at times, Jesus remained faithful.  Then I stop and think of all those people around the world that we do not even think twice about on daily basis.  The men, women and children that are slaughtered and mutilated because of their beliefs and we are worried about our credit rating score.  I also think about the many thousands of Americans who are in horrible situations right now.  They are fighting for scraps for their family, not knowing where the next piece of bread is going to come from.  We must make a Stand for Christ and do so in a way that those who are lost or afraid can feel found and safe.  Psalm 91 verse 2 states, He is my REFUGE and my FORTRESS, my God in whom I TRUST!  Pray for those in need, make a stand through prayer and in any other way that you can.  Do not let your life waste away by following the protocol of how the world tells us to live. Selah!

Everyday

One of the hardest things to do as a christian is live life with Christ first everyday.  We have so many things happen in our life.some of these things keep you busy and others bring you pain.  Look to others when it seems like there is no where to go. The pain and feeling to run away will always be there, but Jesus will always provide a way out.  We must be mature enough to say yes to Jesus and no to the desires and lies of the evil one. Selah!
