Your God May Not Fix this, But Our Father Will!


A family's  worst nightmare is to lose a loved one senselessly at the hands of another person.  I know because our family lost our Aunt this way. Nothing can bring that person back.  Deciding who should or could fix it does nothing but pour salt into a wounded heart.  If you don't expect God to fix it, please don't blame Him for it.  

Besides, when the media uses the word "God" who are they referring to? Different people from various different religious background say "God".  Usually they are not referring to the same God.  So when the New York Daily News said "God won't fix this" my question is what God are they referring to? 

I can guarantee you that they are NOT talking about the God I know. They write about God as "something or someone" to fix it, but not God as Father. The Lord Jesus in Matthew 6:1(NLT) say we should pray this way, "Our Father may your name be kept holy."  He never said to pray, "Our God" in heaven.  Jesus said when we pray to Him affectionately refer to Him as our Heavenly Father.  Noticed the headline did not say, "Our Father won't fix this". They don't know the Heavenly Father. Mankind have always tried to destroy God's name and reputation.  And if God won't fix it then how is it possible for a man who cannot create a star, mountain, river, water, air or himself can truly fix it once and for all! 

Those of us who believe that Jesus is LORD know God as The Father, The Almighty, Powerful, Eternal God. The Creator of all things. The Omniscient, Omnipotent and Omnipresent God.   

Jesus said "Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." (NASB Matt 10:28)

The Evil one can destroy the body, but he cannot destroy the body and the soul. Only God has the power to do so. When we give people the opportunity to have eternal life through Jesus Christ, death has no sting, no victory, and their spirit and soul lives forever.  Their presence will indeed be missed here among us, AND no amount of blame can bring them back.

Remember: Evil will not last always!

Praying for our protection yet knowing we are in His Care!

Turning Your Pain into Power

Image
  "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore,  for the former things have passed away (R evelation 21:4 ESV)." T he journey of life has many twists and turns. There are times when a turn leads us to a place of pain. But, we have the ability to used that pain to catapult ourselves to the place of power. The loss of my younger sister was very painful. She unexpectedly died. I was hurt, cried for days, and thought my chest would burst open from the pain of her departure to be with Jesus.  Not only was she my sister, but my friend. Someone you couldn't help but love! She was loving, kind, compassionate, and caring.  I don't know a sweeter person than my sister, Janice (or JanBaby as our family referred to her).  She started singing at the age of three. You could feel the power of her love deep in your soul, down to your "bones", when she lifted her voice, and breathed ...

God Doesn't Err and Trouble Doesn't Last Always

Your life has many winding roads and complicated stops.   Jesus said, "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world (John 16:33)." When you read the verse, your thought might be, "If Jesus has overcome the world, why does my world feels so broken?" In t he circle of life we have beginnings, endings, and everything in between.  The ebbs  and flows of life bring waters of both joy and pain. But, with God's guiding hands, it flows in a way that moves us upstream to a place of peace, blessings, rest and trust.  You may walk through the great darkness ravine, but you will get through it, because God's got you!    We are overcomers in mind, spirit and soul. Whatever you are going through, it too shall pass.  L ife may not be fair, but God is fair.  Psalm 56 , the psalmist declares to God, “ You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle...

The Reward of Persistent Prayer

Image
    [Jeremiah 29:12-13 (CJB)]: "When you call to me and pray to me, I will listen to you. When you seek me, you will find me, provided you seek from me wholeheartedly;" Dear Ladies, I write this blog with you and the many prayers that you have prayed in mind. Luke 18:2-5] "In a certain town, there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected other people. There was also in that town a widow who kept coming to him and saying, 'Give me a judgment against the man who is trying to ruin me.' For a long time he refused; but after awhile, he said to himself, 'I don't fear God, and I don't respect other people; but because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see to it that she gets justice - otherwise, she'll keep coming and pestering me till she wears me out!"  God is not a cruel judge. When we persist in prayer, we are not pestering Him! Jesus told his disciple this parable, in order to impress on them that they   must always keep praying   a...
