Being friends with God, is in someways no different than being friends here. It takes spending time together, really knowing each other and learning to trust one another.

Thank goodness, dare I say thank God, we are all capable of of that 🙂

As many of you know, my Dad died a few years ago. He taught me so much about faith before he left for Heaven. One of the most important lessons he taught me is feelings just are…but faith is not about how we feel on any given day, but about who we choose to follow on every single day.

And he taught me that sometimes feelings lie…sometimes we “feel” that God is far away, but the truth is that God is always with us and God is always for us. Our “feelings” may tell us we have failed one to many times, but the truth is that there is no such thing. Jesus loves us no matter what and has already paid the price of all of our sins. There are times we may “feel” trapped by circumstances, but The truth is we are free. For Jesus set us free and Heaven waits.

So while it is true that feelings just are. It is also true that God is ever faithful even when we are not (And let’s face it, we all fail sometimes)

But no matter what, God always keeps His promises 🙂

Just thinking of that verse, I can’t help but think how much it must have cost our Father to give His only Son, just to save us. Loving our children is as wonderful as it is all consuming. I can remember well when they were little and sick, my heart would just hurt for them! And as they got older and faced some of life’s challenges, my heart hurt even more for them! I can’t even begin to think what it must have cost our Father and Jesus’ mother Mary, to watch their Son suffer so just to save us.

Thank you Jesus, for saving me. And thank you Father and Mary for your willingness to hurt so much as you watched your Son suffer for our sins, so that we might be saved.

How Blessed are we to be so loved. And although there will never be enough words to thank you, thank you all the same

🙂

But “harden not your heart”  🙂

There is so much happening in our world that gives us reason to worry. After all, it is our children who
will inherit this earth.

But God is still in charge and Jesus is still coming back. So please my friends, do not fear, for Heaven waits for us all!

In God We Trust 🙂

“Your world is not falling apart, it is falling in place. God is holding you. “

A recent song by Lauren Daigle (You Say) is so true.  Sometimes we jump out of bed in the morning and we feel God’s presence.  We don’t think He is with us, we know!  And it feels awesome.   But sometimes, sometimes we don’t ‘”feel” anything, but God is still there.  Walking with you.  So keep praying; keep talking to Jesus and I promised that “feeling” will return.

Have you ever had that feeling that you just don’t want to get out of bed in the morning?   Perhaps you are sick like me?  Maybe there is just too much going on?  Maybe you are going to have to face something today that you just don’t want to face?

Whatever it is, we’ve all been there.  Comfy and safe under our comforter, not wanting to jump up and start the day.  That’s when God’s Message of “Do Not Fear” really matters.  With God for us, who can be against us-and prevail?  Whatever happens during the course of our day, God already knows all about it and is planning to use it to our good, and perhaps even the good of someone else.  Life is not always easy, but with God at our side, it’s always possible ?
