We humans are so impatient. We seem to thrive on instant gratification. We want it and we want it now -- no questions asked! But man are we short changing ourselves!
We pray and ask God for His will in our lives and then we do what WE WANT to. Then comes the blame game -- God why did you allow this to happen to me? When in reality I got exactly what I deserved, because of impatience and trying to play God.
I am walking through a few trials now, but I am not alone! I will NOT let God's Hand go. I know when I feel weak, He will then carry me. He has placed a group of His ministers, my friends, in my life for me to lean on. And I have promised Him that I WILL NOT allow a wall to be built by the enemy. God will see me THROUGH this, not around it, not over it, not even under it -- but complete victory by perservering through it. I AM NOT ALONE!
I thank God for His timing -- and the patience to hold out, grow stronger in Him and come out VICTORIOUS!
Remember me and my family in your prayers!

God's Love
Do you really know just how much God loves you??
Well, let me tell you how much He loves ME! He has entrusted me with responsibility that sometimes I really don't want -- being completely honest here! I often ask "why can't I have it easy like so and so?" Then we have the privilidge of being tried, and often I get to see how so and so handles it -- sometimes well and most times they turn their back ontheir responsibility.
I pray and ask God to help me to accept the tasks He has for me each day. He gives me the strength to push flesh to the shadows and walk in Him. Even when I really don't feel like pushing self behind and make a behind of myself, He is there to pick me up and love me!
There may not be anybody out there who understands this blog, or even has felt the same way I do. You've NEVER asked God why, or I don't feel like this today, or why don't you try that person and not me. But one thing the Lord is still teaching me is it's ok to fall as long as I learn from my mistakes, do my very best thru Him not to repeat them and to share my errors with others when HE prompts me to.
So today, I would like to thank God for His wonderful love to me, for His patience and most of all HIS GRACE! God is so good!!!
If you find yourself mulling in the daily mess sometimes referred to as life -- look up at the clouds, look around at the landscape, look in the mirror at yourself and thank God for His wonderful creation ... we were created in His image for His purpose. Think positive thoughts and ALWAYS keep a prayer and a song on your mind and heart!
God bless you today!!!
