Behold, God is my salvation

Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation - -Isaiah 12:2

In our darkest moments just remember who you should trust to keep you and be strengthen by it. Let there be no doubt that God will always be at your side.

Psalm 105:4 Seek the Lord and his strength...

Seek the Lord and his strength;
Seek his face continually;
Psalm 105:4

Now for something a little differrent

What do you see in Jesus's face ?

"They go from one sin to another; they do not acknowledge Me" (Jeremiah 9:3).

Jeremiah was appointed God's spokesman to call the people of Israel back to a relationship filled with true worship. But despite many pleas for the people to repent, their hearts remained cold and closed to God's wonderful truth; "They go from one sin to another; they do not acknowledge Me" (Jeremiah 9:3).

Each day we struggle through the array of temptations that we seemed to be drawn into. How do we over come these. Not with our own straight or will power. We really cannot do it on our own. Only with Jesus's help we can over come this together. Oh I know how heavy this hangs on us.

As Bob Dylan sang..."People seldom do what they believe in. They do what is convenient, then repent."

Jeremiah 32:27 "I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for Me?"

Jeremiah 32:27



"I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for Me?"

The times in which we are most tested and pressed down ought to be the times of greatest growth and closeness with our Heavenly Father. When it seems we have no where else to turn, we ought to rejoice and trust Him even more! Let's put our life firmly in His Hands and submit to His guidance - even when we may not see where we are going or how we will get there. Let's trust His ways and always remember...for God, there is NOTHING too hard!

This was the message in my inbox today. Very timely in my circumstance, for I really feel there is no where to turn, no one to ask for help, no options available. I keep on praying and am constantly receiving assurance from God that everything is possible in his hands.
 

The ground shock again in Banda Aceh yesterday. I was sitting on the sofa when I felt a familiar side to side motion which was like not a normal feeling. This was the same strange feeling I had before during the last great earthquake in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. I had a feeling that this was happenning again. I did a quick check on the net and sure enough a 7.6 earthquake hit Aceh again around 12:46 pm. Thank God there was no Tsunami this time, but it brings back the thought that everything is in God's hands. The path we have choosen is in Gods hands. An event like this is totally out of our control.

2 Timothy 2:1 A verse of encouragement

2 Timothy 2:1


"You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus."
 

This is such a great and ensuring phrase. As we go about each day with our troubles and fears, we can be assured that the grace of God is always there to provide us strength to carry on and go through what ever trials and task that may be ahead of us.
 
Grace is one thing that is unique to Christians and the concept that brings a unique sense of belonging to something far greater then yourself and what you can accomplish with your own steam.
