Its been a long time since I wrote something new but God has still been gracious and kept my loved ones and I .Many things have happened the last two months, and many of us have experienced,tears,pain,turmoil,laughter and joy.
I have been reflecting on my life,especially my past and been astonished by the number of the experiences that I have had,would have defined the last page of my life story.I could not have seen through those experiences that God miraculously came through for me because either my eyes were filled with so many tears that they were blurred or the pain I felt was just too much to feel anything else around me,or the thoughts of how impossible it was to get rescue were so overwhelming that I did not see that my rescue was right there by my side.
During these experiences it was so easy to let fear creep in and forget on The Great I Am.forget what He says about Him engraving my life in the palm of His hands,forget His plans for me of Him having great plans for me,those of prosperity and not for evil.it was so easy that I did forget.
“Can a woman forget her nursing child,
that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb?
Even these may forget,
yet I will not forget you.
Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
your walls are continually before me.Isaiah 49:15-16
God having a plan for us entails Him being there with us throughout the whole process until His plan is established.when God told Moses that He will be with him,Moses did not see the greater picture that God was seeing,He looked at His present situation and by what other people had judged Him by.what Moses did not know is that even before He was born,God knew what Moses will be able to do.His birth came at a time when Hebrew boys were being thrown into the Nile river.God was crafty enough to make sure that by the time Moses as a baby reached the banks of the river Nile while in the basket,the king's daughter would be there to notice the basket and like the baby Moses so much that she decides to keep him.that was God's plan because Moses had to grow up in the palace and learn leadership skills that would help him as a leader with the Israelite.Moses running away from Egypt was not by chance,he had to learn to live in a foreign country and face challenges,to harden him,because with the Israelite they had to be foreigners in different nations and Moses had to be strong for them.
nothing in our lives is by accident,it is God's perfect plan for us in the process to completion.never lose hope by what you see around you,hold on and call on God's name to help you in the time of need.His grace is sufficient,and He who began a good work in you will sure finish it.
When the race gets you down, press on.
When your hopes are handcuffed and your dreams are deferred, press on.
When the headwinds of life slow you down, press on.
When life is filled with delay, disruptions, and disappointment, press on.
Press past the mess and stroll through the stress.
Press on!
press on because God is working in you and with you.Press on because if God is for you who can be against you?so just Press on!
I pray that the Lord will give us peace that we may not question Him when things are tough.I pray for a resilient spirit that just will not give up no matter what..I pray that we may see the bigger picture and not what will come and pass,In Jesus name, amen.
