Being Convicted’

The feeling of being deeply convicted is a continual blessing that fills your heart & soul in ways that are so UN-explainable. The battle is on an it’s up to us to be Christ like and be a change in others’ lives - try as we may to do it on our own only ends up us being put in trials of tough love meant to teach us Christ’s unconditional Love for all of his children. Rely on God’s Love & Strength to see you through, have Faith. Imagine how being unloved in society can feel - why is it that we give more to the deserving & less if not any to the undeserving as we somehow see it. - God has many of his lambs in places many of us would not ever think of. Yet in Gods Eyes we are all in the book of lambs’ receiving his Love equally. Don't down someone because of how they look or live as you have no idea that the one you’re downing very well could be Jesus. Get up, Get out, & get over yourself we are NOTW (not of this world) but we are in it for a reason.

God Do You Hear Me?

I’m thinking many times when We feel Gods not listening’ He in fact has just stepped aside – watching an waiting for us to stop thinking we know what’s best. We were given the option of choice, we seem to forget who in fact gave us that Option, many times are choice is our own way of thinking.

Not the righteous way of allowing God to be Our Guide through the valleys we have fallen into, then we try to climb out. The first thing we do is blame’ or find fault in others for the hardships we find ourselves in.

We need to Reach out to God for direction – Letting HIS Will Be Done not ours. Maybe just MAYBE God wants us to look at ourselves for a change. Yes as much as we want to deny this we have a lot to do with the life we seem to be living.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight. ~ Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust ~ Yes this is a hard one ~ I Battle with this one many times (anger & not understanding also) I guess that’s where its not Ours to Understand comes in’

We need to be rejoicing because even though we are sinners, God continues to love & forgive us. Even when we don't think he's there ~ His Unconditional Love is caring us through & giving us the strength to keep going on.

Loving Hands'

We all start out as babies and need nurturing from a loving hand; and as we feel that comfort and love, we depend on that person for so much in our lives, we grow to the stage of making childish mistakes and then comes discipline but in that we find guidance and growth.

Then all of a sudden we're getting outside influence from hands that may or may not have that loving touch, like the ones when we were young. This is the time of choice; sometimes we find ourselves making the wrong choices, and feel there is no one there with those loving hands.

A still small and silent voice or a tingle in the stomach, and yes even an ache in the heart feeling begins to happen. But like usual we just accept it like it's a normal feeling or coincidence; most of the time we get frustrated and angry when there is a loving hand reaching out to comfort and love us. We've forgotten whose hand formed us and knew us before we even started in this life.

Those nurturing hands have always been with us and we need to reach out and touch them and feel the pain and tears that lived and died for us to have the unconditional love that was given to us with everlasting life. We feel that comfort and love that comes from our precious Savior and sometimes that feeling comes through a friend or loved one.

We need to soften our hearts and listen and be amazed at what is being said or felt. For it is with much love and joy that we were given life. Someday when we are in heaven I know we will look up to Jesus and truly see and feel this LOVE. So, until then, my prayer is that all that we do and all that we say is out of love for one another, not just in good times but in hard times for this is when we usually cry out and our souls are being filled with emotions that can make us or break us.

Jesus was oh so broken for us to have life and we have a choice to live our life with his loving hands guiding us out of love and concern for all.
