Tell me Why?

Saturday, June 11, 2005

It is easy for most of us to neglect God in favor of our own desires, our own opinions and our own thoughts. As a Christian, I am reminded that I am in a dying world and people need to know what God has done for them. I will not stop to share the joy of knowing Christ. My prayer in my heart is the passion to let others know about God's love. What makes a Christian stand out? It is God's presence. Let us look at is in Exodus when Moses was speaking with the Lord.

Exodus 13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thy sight, show me now thy ways, that I may know thee and find favor in thy sight. Consider too that this nation is thy people." 14 And he said, "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." 15 And he said to him, "If thy presence will not go with me, do not carry us up from here. 16 For how shall it be known that I have found favor in thy sight, I and thy people? Is it not in thy going with us, so that we are distinct, I and thy people, from all other people that are upon the face of the earth?" 17

I just received a commendation from my sup that I passed all the metrics for my job this week. It feels great knowing that things are looking better even after the day I "let go" of my emotional attachment. I praise God for showing me that He is faithful. And when He takes away something, He never replaces it with the BEST. He has our best interest in mind.

Romans 8:28 - And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

I never heard from him since that day and my mind sometimes wonder about him and what is happening to him. I am reminded that in all my thoughts I would take it captive to obey Christ.

2 Corinthians 10:5 - We destroy arguments and every proud obstacle to the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,

I pray for him still. I pray that more than anything, I pray for his salvation and that he may come to know Christ. Even if it takes breaking him and bringing him to the end of himself that he can cry to no one else but God. I am thankful and continue to be thankful for the times. God will use every part of my life for His Glory.

Luke 19:10 - For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost."

Every day is a new day and an opportunity to praise God. I entrust everything to God as I continue to have faith like a child that someday we will be together, maybe not on earth but in heaven someday. Oh what a beautiful place heave is...

To Jesus alone all glory and praises...
