Solutions - Where Do You Find Them?
Good Morning
Everything we face daily has a solution.
Sometimes we can work on it till it is accomplished.
Sometimes we are to wait, it is something that
cannot be solved now.. and needs prayer. We
need to wait for God's timing and help.
Sometimes there doesn't seem to be a answer or
rhyme or reason to why something is happening.
That is when our faith kicks in. We just trust in
the Lord, that his Sovereign will, grace, hope,
strength and comfort will be our source.
Sometimes we get so caught up in looking at
the problem, we stop looking for the solution.
Simple concept.
We are not taking time to refresh ourselves in God,
Hope in His abilities
Find comfort in His word,
and listen for that still small voice saying:
"Are you listening"?
God loves you my friend, there is no higher nor
better solution than going to God in prayer
and telling Him every detail, problem, and every
pain and hurt in your life, He wants to hear.
He wants to help. He is after all.. STILL GOD.
But those who wait for the Lord -- who expect,
look for and hope in Him -- shall change and renew
their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and
mount up (close to God) as eagles (mount up to the sun);
they shall walk and not be weary, they shall walk and
shall not faint nor become tired.
Isaiah 40:31
May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and
peace in believing -- through the experience of your faith -- that
by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and
be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.
Romans 15:13
(my prayer for each of you)
Remember prayer is not pitiful or powerless, or a last resort.
Prayer is our first resort, communication with God,
the almighty all powerful God of the Universe!
It is powerful, it should be our first resort, and our
constant state of mind. Prayerful. Pray without ceasing.
This is when a true God seeker, sees things get done.
Prayer changes things!
The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
James 5:16

PS. Sometimes I think, if we are not seeking the
Savior, what are we seeking? Have you thought
lately about where your focus is or what you make
a priority in your life? Nothing is more important.
Only one life, will soon be past,
Only what is done
for Christ will last.

A Gentle Thunder
by Max Lucado
Once there was a man who dared God to speak.
"Burn the bush like you did for Moses, God. And I will follow."
"Collapse the walls like you did for Joshua, God. And I will fight."
"Still the waves like you did on Galilee, God. And I will listen."
And so the man sat by a bush, near a wall, close to the sea and waited for God to speak.
And God heard the man, so God answered.
He sent fire, not for a bush, but for a church.
He brought down a wall, not of brick, but of sin.
He stilled a storm, not of the sea, but of the soul.
And God waited for the man to respond.
And he waited...
And he waited...
And waited.
But because the man was looking at bushes, not hearts; bricks and not lives;
seas and not souls, he decided that God had done nothing. Finally he
looked to God and asked, "Have you lost your power?"
And God looked at him and said, "Have you lost your hearing?"
