In a world filled with so much chaos, have you found something or someOne you can be certain hears you....?

Funny,I often hear the voice of Brother Shambach when experiencing or hearing of a very difficult life challenge: "God will make a way,where there is no way"...Of course this simply means,that nothing is impossible for,nor even remotely considered,a challenge for God..."Behold,I Am the Lord,the God of all flesh,is there anything too difficult for me"? Jeremiah(somewhere..lol)

It seems as though however,that God often stretches our faith muscles to the point of snapping at times and often just preceding or soon after the death of a dream,vision or desperate need...a belabored prayer is finally answered...God is often silent but neither late,deaf,blind nor unaffected by our pain,frustration,fear needs or desires...

((((Jan))))...((((Eds))))..Howdy!

Jan,

There are many people in my life at this time that I trust when I am in need of assistance (reasurrance) but none of them compares to GOD who created all things and sent HIS' SON so that we would have an opportuntiy to be in Heaven in the after-awhile. GOD was not a part of my life for many years then I became comatose and had a Near-Death Experience (as a teenager). This experience cause me to take a look at where I stood and what might happen if I did not find what HE expected of me. My wife and I became Christians over twenty years ago and I would not do anything differently today. I have been preaching from time to time and doing so without renumeration because GOD provides as we have need. You are always in my prayers as are Primo, Gospel Shirley, and many others who I met on this site. Have a great week.

Thank You,

Eds

Hello there Bobby!

.

I'll try to add more to this later but here's the bottom line:

He'll never leave us nor forsake us. Those of us who are in Christ have hope for eternity. As for the "here and now", He will provide all of our needs.

Edit:

Let me re-introduce you to the verses that carried me through 2009......when both my wife & myself lost our jobs. Please don't misunderstand my post.......I know you have faith. You are a strong sister in the Lord who inspires me at times......and keeps me in line when necessary:

Luke12:22-34

Then Jesus said to his disciples: "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?

"Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith! And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.

"Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Loved your question, and love the response here of Primoa, etc.

The One I know that I can always trust , lean on, abide in, and know will always be there for me, that cares what I say and think and feel, that is the only One that can show me the way in all things, is the Lord.

He died that we not only be saved, but overcome sins as He did, by living a life of holiness and obedience. and we are commanded to do the same, no matter how baldy ppl hate to hear that.

The seeker friendly approach doesnt cut it, another lie of the devil there.

But, I have gone thru some pretty hard stuff in my lifetime, and I tell you, God is always there for me. oh Yes. And, Yes , Jesus is God and So is the Holy Spirit.

Blessed Trinity. amen.

I always knew He was there, but often i gave up on me, as I didnt see I was still trying to be the one that fixed everything. But, God showed me the way and it was such a huge burden taken from me.I dont have to fix a thing. Just to listen to Him, do as He says, and He is the one that saves, heals and delivers, and takes care of everything.

As long as we keep our promises to Him, He is there keeping His promises to us.

IT truly is a two fold covenant we have with Him.

When we are His, we want to obey. He says If you love me, obey Me.

Oh yes, He is is faithful and just, and never gives up on us.

But, often ppl give up on Him and fall away, and its usually just before they were to receive victory in whatever area they had been praying for.

WE must never give up on God, or grow tired and weary as we wait.

He is always there for us.

Lets keep our promises and always be there for Him as well.

Shalom Peace.

Meaning, Nothing broken, nothing needing to be fixed.

All is well in Him.

Do we love Him enough to keep our promises to Him?

IF not, we arent His yet.

LEts all just love each other, love God and keep on praying.

IF we dont give up, He will give us every answer we need, and in time.

I know some that are athiests says that having God is a crutch.

I always giggle. No, its not like that. We love HIm because He loves us and He is very real.

But, wowowow, what a wonderful crutch to have when we need one.

I pray the entire world will Have Him to lean on...

Full Gospel Shirley

I know that God does because He lives in me since I turned away from my sins and received Jesus as my Lord.

Joshua 1:5

No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.

Only Jesus Who is God, His spirit Who instructs me through His Word and His Word who leads me into His righteousness of which I have none except His !
