We remind ourselves every step of the way…just who God is..and that through it all that He is God!..and that He is there…so do we quit in the midst of adversity or challenges that are presented to us?..do we throw our towel in and quit?….or do we press on in persistence and determination that no matter what that God is God…and the He hears us when we call unto Him…for He tells us in His word to call unto Him and that He would answer us and show us great and mighty things that we know not..Jeremiah 33:3…see it’s not a question of who God is….but it is a question of just who we His children are..and the question is who are we gonna believe in?..and what are we His children gonna do in the midst of these battles and problems that come and present themselves unto us?..see that’s the questions..because what we’re made of or even what needs to be perfected in us will come forth and come forth quickly when things aren’t running smoothly or going our way so to speak..but that’s when we have to know that no matter the darkness, no matter the trial, no matter the problems, that we are gonna run our race that the Lord our God has placed before us…see the word says this to each of us…Wherefore seeing that we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is sit down at the right hand of the throne of God…Hebrews 12:1-2..so once again guys just know that we will have cloudy days, and days where the tears seem to not want to stop for us, or even days when life is just a little dreary and maybe just a little cloudy for us…cause those days they come for us all…but through all of those days, and through all of those circumstances and situations…we have to know that Gods grace is sufficient for us..2 Corinthians 12:9…and that God answers our prayers…and that maybe they’ll not be answered as quickly as we would like for them to be…but just knowing that God is faithful, and knowing that God will answer gives us the assurance and the determination to keep fighting and keep pressing on…so today be encouraged that whatever you’re facing..always remember that God loves you…and that Gods eyes are on you…and that each of us are growing, and we’re learning to lean on the Lord…that our faith is growing through every test and through every trial that may come our way….so I pray that none of us grow weary and that none of us give in or give up, because we will reap if we faint not..Galatians 6:9….for you see God has you and God has me, and He has us covered…and as well, He is ever merciful, ever loving, and ever so kind and caring…so let us all keep looking up to our Father…let us all keep praying…for when we delight ourselves in the Lord, He promises to give us our hearts desires..Psalm 37:4…for God is always working everything together for our good..Romans 8:28….so let us hold to the word of God, and let us keep standing and believing the words of our Lord, cause Gods word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our pathway…Psalm 119:105…and Gods word is what goes forth to accomplish that in which it was sent forth to accomplish..Isaiah 55:11…so we stand on the word of God..we live the word of God..and we believe the word of God…for I can’t help but think of the song that is sung in Sunday school classes for the little children that goes like this…the B-I-B-L-E…..that’s the book for me! I stand alone on the word of God!! The B-I-B-L-E….Well Praise the Lord!! Hallelujah! and Hallelujah!!..so let us stay focused…let us stay prayed up…and let us, each of us stay filled up with the Lord our God!!…In Jesus’ name I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen!!!..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
