I visited a place, more times than I would like to admit. That lonely hill called: ‘the end of my rope’… a place where I couldn’t see breakthrough or change any time soon…
Lonely because the people around me couldn’t bear to listen to the problem, or rather pure frustration, anymore and only after you have reached the END OF YOUR ROPE do you realize that you cannot DO anything about your situation but wait it out and the people around you can only really support you THROUGH it.
KEY WORD here is THROUGH. Just because we can’t SEE the solution does not mean that it is not close or on the way. Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1
With a Hopeless mind and heart our solution might walk right passed us and we wouldn’t even recognize it. Negativity and hopelessness will suck the life right out of you! It will keep you blind to possibilities and opportunities. Psalm 39:7 the psalmist prays to God saying: My HOPE is in YOU!
We need to SEEK God. THROUGH the good times & THROUGH the bad. When we only seek Him THROUGH the difficult times then we are not really in an intimate relationship with Him…
Don't be missing out on Big Loving!
He wants to be loved by us with EVERYTHING we’ve got, because He Loves us with HIS EVERYTHING!!!!!
Heart. & Soul! Spirit & Body!
JOHN 4:23 23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.
The Bone and Marrow
Christian worship engages both heart and head. It necessitates true doctrine about the Father and his Son, and their partnership in rescuing sinners, and due emotion about that doctrine. It is both an affair of the heart and an affair of the mind. Piper sums it up as “strong affections for God rooted in truth.”
If We can GET THIS during our tests and trials, we will have the JOY of the LORD.
…The JOY of the LORD is your STRENGTH!
FRIEND, don’t give up! Push Through! Praise God at ALL TIMES.
Where you End is where HE begins. HOLD ON!
(Also read Psalm 63 :)
Be Blessed, Be Inspired!
