tHe LoRd is GoOd




Lamentations 3:25 (RSV)

25 The Lord is good to those who wait for him,
    to the soul that seeks him.

How to wait on the LORD?  This million dollar question is very important; I believe that when I sit and wait for the LORD I want to be in a quiet place.  I will consider my surrounding and all the people in my space.

To stay focused and to the point I want to be prayerful and I want to mediate on scripture that I feel has relevance for my situation.  I am reminded that the LORD is good to those who wait for HIM.  I also remind myself that I am a soul seeking the LORD.

From my point of view I need to be in a quiet space with peace and quiet around me, a place where I can stay focused and wait for the answers I need to carry on.  I realize that I don’t always get the answers immediately but when it comes to me I am normally so surprised I can hardly believe what happens. 

It is powerful how awesome and wonderful our LORD really is, when we wait on HIM, He will reveal Himself to you.


Prayer

O LORD God I know You are so good to me, I believe that when I truly and humbly come into YOUR presences I am heard.  I pray for open eyes, ears and heart to Your word today, in Jesus Name, Amen

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
