Hi friends, It has been a ‘memorable’ past few weeks for me – ‘nuf said – I need prayers for my family. And I know I have close family and loved ones praying and I can feel the blessings of it because the Lord has removed the despair from my heart and replaced with hope and assurance that He is in control. I know that my Lord will work for the best, the best alone. I consider myself blessed that I did not hold on to any grudges or let my ego from reaching out. It reminds me that through it all, I have not lost the guidance of the Holy Spirit over my life. I know I did my part, and it is clear that the spiritual bondages that is currently reigning can be broken by God alone, not by any effort by any person.
Thank you Jesus for your sweet, unchanging love and I give myself, my all, to You.
I’m reminded of a story I taught my sunday school students a couple of years ago. The story of Jonah! After all, when Jonah didn’t go to Nineveh on his own, God brought on a storm. Fate appeared to work against him and he picked the short straw and finally he spent days in a whale’s stomach before Jonah repented and decided to obey God. Now I don’t know if this my Jonah experience or God protecting me from what is going to be someone’s Jonah experience. All I know is that many other lives are going to be changed positively as an impact of my story, my life is going to be a testimony for God, that He’s not finished with me yet.
Which takes me to this blessed song that was in my head on March 2nd, 2013. A day when my heart felt like it had nothing to sing about, my Savior sang it to me, to my heart, to remind me of His love. Enjoy.
