“Man of sorrows!”

“When I look in the scriptures and I begin to read and I see where our Lord and Savior was called a man of sorrows..I can’t but for the life of me understand that how Jesus..whom was perfect and spotless was yet hated on..was rejected by many..the ones that He loved denied Him..they turned and they walked away from our Lord..for I know that our carnal minds can’t help but wonder why our Lord had to face and go through so much while He was here on this earth..why our Lord had to grieve and face so many obstacles along the pathway that God our Father had placed Him on..and at how He never in turn backed away..no matter who or what came against Him..our Lord kept the faith and kept on the path that God had before Him..for He knew within Himself that He was on a mission from the throne room from the Almighty..Amen..that God in His infinite wisdom had a plan to save mankind..so He sent down from heaven that one and perfect spotless Lamb..so that He alone could be our freedom..Amen!”

“I think God let Jesus go through them things so that as we ourselves look to the Lord for help in our own lives..that we know that the Lord understands our rejection that we ourselves may go through from time to time..that He understands what it is to grieve and cry..to be despised..to be manipulated..lied upon..our Lord knows how we feel for He Himself faced and went through all things that we go through..Amen..so I know that Jesus could have called on God to get Him out of all of the mess that was taking place..but He didn’t He knew that He had a purpose..that He told God nevertheless..not my will but yours be done..(Luke 22:42)..Amen..so He fought through it with much prayer..and He held on through it all..because He knew that His Father in heaven knew what was best for Him..for the scripture says He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not…(Isaiah 53:3)..Amen!”

“So when life begins to happen in our own lives and in our own little worlds that we live..I pray we all understand that Jesus understands..that He knows what were facing and going through ourselves..but with Gods grace and help we make it through the obstacles and through the trials that we face and go through in life..so we pray just as our Lord prayed..and we stay the course just as the Lord Jesus stayed that pathway..and kept on going no matter what came..Amen..for even He was tempted of the devil the bible says that our Lord was led away into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil..for forty days and forty nights..(Matthew 4:1-2)..so know that we will be tempted..we will be tried by that fire..we will go through heartaches..grief and disappointments and woes in our own lives..but just know that the Lord is leading you somewhere great..for we never face things and or go things that would be wasted..for it’s all for a reason..for God knows what He is doing we may not understand the reasonings..but we know that God and His ways are perfect..Amen!”

“So we keep walking and we keep on going..living our lives daily to please Jesus..in everything and anything it is that were doing..for one day it all will make since but than again maybe it won’t ever make since..but either way my prayer is that no matter what any of us face or no matter what any of us ever have to go through that we never let go of the Lord..but we hold fast and keep on loving our Father..for scripture says it best..that weeping may endure for the night..but joy comes in the morning..(Psalm 30:5)..and we win guys..Amen..we may not feel that we are winning here on this earth..but I got good news for ya’ll..this ole world isn’t our home..were just passing through..for heaven is the goal..and that’s where our true and lasting victory lies..Amen..so let us make it everyone of us to heaven..just as Jesus stayed the course and kept going on to Calvary for me and for you..the same with us we keep going because heaven is where were heading, and were looking forward to that one great and glorious day when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ shall call us on home, to live on for all eternity with Him..Praise the Lord..for I love the quote that Corrie ten Boom had written that says this..”If you look at the world, you’ll be distressed. If you look within, you’ll be depressed. If you look at God you’ll be at rest.”..so let us keep our eyes on Jesus for He alone is the Author and the Finisher of our faith..(Hebrews 12:2)..Amen!”

“For it is in His name, Jesus’ name..that 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 ❤
