It's NOT Always As Bad As It Seems

Courtesy of Shemicka Adams via Facebook:

When you face oppositions that make you feel like your life is falling apart, tell God THANK YOU! Sometimes God has to come in and wreck our so called lives so that He can change our condition and place us in position to receive what He has in store for us. It may seem like that walls of life are caving in on you, but God is allow trials and tribulations to put pressure on you to squeeze out the greatness that is inside you. God sees beyond that natural.

No matter what you have done in your life, God can use you for His glory. You wonder why some people just stopped talking to you, or turn against you for no apparent reason, don't worry about just tell God thank you! God has to take His hand and move people and things out our lives that He know we will not let go of on our own. So He orchestrate a plan to remove them for us. In order for us to be who God has called us to be, God has to remove somethings to make room for His deposit!

God wants to pour into us, but we are full of mess therefore He has to wash us in His blood and clean us up. I thank God for His faithfulness. He loves us when we don't love ourselves, He is faithful even when we are not faithful to Him, He keeps in times we don't want to be kept. God is an awesome God. So, when you feel like your life is falling apart, IT IS!


IT'S UNDER SPIRITUAL CONSTRUCTION AND ALMIGHTY GOD HAS CREATED THE BLUEPRINTS ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS!!!! Let God do a new thing in your life today!!!!!

Peace be Still!!!!!!!

Jesus Calms the Storm
35 As evening came, Jesus said to his disciples, “Let’s cross to the other side of the lake.” 36 So they took Jesus in the boat and started out, leaving the crowds behind (although other boats followed). 37 But soon a fierce storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with water.

38 Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting, “Teacher, don’t you care that we’re going to drown?”

39 When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm. 40 Then he asked them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?”

41 The disciples were absolutely terrified. “Who is this man?” they asked each other. “Even the wind and waves obey him!”

The Storm before the Peace

I looking for the positive... and that is with God all things are possible. So my prayer today is for mental emotional healing on all levels for my mother. She struggles each day with things that I know nothing about. I wish she were one of those mothers that could talk to her children about anything and everything, but the old hurts, wounds, scabs, etc that have caused her to put up a wall has left no room for that woman to exist.

I often ponder what would it be like to have that woman. Now don't get me wrong my mother is a great person. She is loving in her own way and generous to her family and others. But on the communication side (verbally at least). There is something to be desired.

I have prayed before for healing in communication and strength for a bonding relationship between my mother and I and I have felt a little better in the recent months about that. I have also moved... so is that was has made it better???? Anyway... I think i was praying for the wrong thing. My prayer tonight will be about the healing of my mother's emotional and spiritual well-being. For I believe it is this that will help to make our family united as one.

So I ask for help oh God... to give us strength as we battle this storm. I ask that you speak to the storm raging inside and tell it peace be still. Work not only within my mother but within all today Lord that need peace in an aspect of their emotional/mental well-being. Allow a breakthrough that will allow healing in many other areas oh God. I give you praise oh Lord for just allowing me to speak these words and ask for the healing. I thank you oh God for your diving blessing and for your grace and mercy. I ask these things in your darling son Jesus' name. AMEN.
