What Happened?

Have you ever had a broken friendship and wondered how'd that happen? Maybe you felt totally blindsided?Have you ever been rebuffed and wondered what you did wrong? Has life ever ended up in a surprising twist of events? Sometimes there isn't a solid answer to our questions. But the truth is many things that happen are a conclusion of a slow building up of multiple episodes. There may have been signs the whole time that you choose to put aside. There may have been hints that this person or situation was not going well, or they were trying to reject you but you pushed passed it. Don't be quick to ignore signs,don't be in a hurry to start relationships are make them work. Take you time in forming friendships,working on family relations or joining organizations,take your time move slowly. Don't try to force things to work that just maybe aren't meant to be, or may take time. As the clique saying says good things come in time.Be willing to face rejection are your life working out differently than you planned. The same thing can be said for yourself and issues you have or occurrences in your life. The way to avoid blunders in the future is by taking care of issues that need to be resolved right now,not by putting them off. Forgive others easily, forgive yourself. Be willing to change and put the time and effort into a relationship with God where your life can change for the better. Any relationship must be build on love,time and trust. Be willing to take your time with relationships and be willing to face things head on in life,because the outcome will be much more enriching and beneficial.

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 (KJV)

My Valentine

It's funny when people refer to me as single, I have to reaffirm it because even though I am single physically I'm never alone. To me I haven't been single since the day I gave my life to Christ. So if I had to pick someone special to honor this day, someone who has been there for me through the bad the good and the ugly it would be God. God has been a steady rock,a comforter,an encourager, a supporter,lifesaver,hope builder, if I had a valentine his name would be Jesus,not a worldly sense but in a celestial sense,the sense of a father who has been abounding and steadfast, the sense of a friend whose stuck by my side. In  Jeremiah 31:3b God says to me and every human who will listen Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee.If you are looking for love remember: My valentine love goes deep he never gave me chocolates or roses he gave his life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 There are many that are married/in a relationship that still have not found the stedfast eternal love that only God can give. You see in Jesus is the beginning,history and foundation of love. You don't know love if you don't know Jesus. If you don't know  Jesus love he is beckoning, he's knocking at your door.Will you let him in? Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.If you know God and he has come into your life he has given you a promise that you will never be alone.(Revelation 3:20) 

Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he (God) hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.(Hebrews 13:5)

God Forgives Instantly

God Forgives Instantly

As I washed my hands at work the other day God brought to my mind a spiritual truth. Think about this for a moment. When you wash your hands do you think for a moment that they are still unclean? No. You continue about your day. But yet, he reminded me that so often we think that we have to come to God again and again with a sin to allow Him to wash us and cleanse us when he washed us the first time. As Christians when we make a mistake if we ask God to forgive us and repent (turn away) from our sin then we are forgiven the first time. 1 John 1:9 says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." The word cleanse means to purify; to make clean; to remove filth, to purify from guilt. God makes us a promise in 1 John 1:9. If we do our part and repent then He will not only forgive us but also cleanse us from all unrighteousness. So we need to resist the urge to go back and ask God to forgive us again, again, and again because we don't FEEL like you are cleansed because you ARE cleansed by the precious blood of the Lamb.

"Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool."

~Isaiah 1:18~

God's Will or your Dream

There are many people today who are claiming God had a hand in their success. When they get an award for a movie full of sex and blaspheming they thank God. I don't mean to be rude,but I don't think God wants your thanks not for your performance anyways. You see many of the things people are claiming to have accomplished came from compromise of God's commandments. When people go out and make their dreams happen they often have to play dirty to get ahead. Many successful business men have had to lie and cheat. Many athletes have had to turn a blind eye. Many actor have had to sell their innocence so to speak to get to the top. If this road traveled to success it is paved by our will not God's will. God 's will is follow him.

For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever. (1 John 2:16-17)

I recently read an article where an actor claimed he got saved and God's hand led him into the movie industry to become a star (while I respect film-making and am an artist myself & his movies don't seem exactly kosher if you know what I mean.)It's strange that so many people are claiming God put them on a path where their led to directly break his commandments.I wonder why now all of a sudden God is contradicting himself maybe he modernized or is going with the flow?????...............or maybe it's time to be honest and admit many r fulfilling their dreams not his. Don't be deceived into thinking fulfilling your dreams will fulfill you, only God can do that.

Teach me to do your will,

for you are my God!

Let your good Spirit lead me

on a level ground! ( Psalm 143:10)
