Unforgiving And Out Of Focus

Little Thoughts For Big Days

I chose this picture because it’s a bit blurry and depicts our life when we can’t forgive. An unforgiving spirit takes our life out of focus and concentration becomes difficult, as we think of no one but ourselves. Our pity parties don’t do us any good and we become our own worst enemy as we go into hiding, dodging bullets and seeking revenge! Consequently we become ruined and destroyed creatures and we have no one to blame but ourselves because of our over reactions. The irony of it all is that our accuser or offender doesn’t seem to care, which only adds fuel to the fire of revenge.

Friends, forgive the hurt by accepting it, taking the loss for it, giving grace and moving on as you begin to focus once again on life and the beauty of it that surrounds you. Enjoy life without the offender’s control over you.

Ephesians 4:31-32
“Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.(attitude: loving and forgiving just like God forgave you)”

Let’s Go To The Other Side

So if you feel defeated and your problem seems insurmountable, tell it how big your God is and leave it with Him!  Trust Him through it regardless of your feelings and what you see. Remember the enemy knows where he can break through and attack!  He’ll catch you when you’re not looking ~ not alert!   Don’t forget that God’s hand controls the universe and your little world. His power is greater!   His victory is sure!   His grace sweet and His love unconditional.   He’s got your problem!   He’s got your back!   He’s got you covered so if you doubt His skilled mastermind and sovereignty ~ don’t!   He’s working behind the scenes of your trial in ways that you could never comprehend.   He will bring you through!   He will get you to the other side!

1 John 4: 4
“You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”

Luke 8:22
One day Jesus said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” So they got into a boat and set out.” …we know the rest…We know about the storm that came up, and their fear and how Christ spoke peace into the eye of it and calmed the wind and the waves. That’s what He does. I love how He does it!

♥♥♥ HIS music is in my HEART!!! I will Praise you Lord! ♥♥♥

Praise Through The Problem

For the struggle you face and the battle ahead, remember God inhabits the praises of His people. It’s tough to give praise in the problem but our praise is an expression of faith and a declaration of victory. It will send the enemy running in defeat. Praise needs to be a lifestyle that we live out as consistently as we breathe. Remember how concerned Jehosaphat , King Of Judah, was when informed of the huge army coming against him? Did he panic? I’m sure he did, but he went to the Lord for counsel. He knew on their own they were useless and powerless. I love God’s answer, in 2 Chronicles 20: 15 – 17:  “….Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army.  For this battle is not yours, but God’s.   Tomorrow march down against them. You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you.” I love Jehoshaphat’s word to his people in 20:20:

“Have faith in the Lord your God and you will be upheld…you will be successful.. He then appointed men to sing praise to God,  give thanks and praise Him for the splendour of His holiness.  Don’t you love what happened next….?

“Now when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushes against the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir who were invading Judah and they were defeated.”  2 Chronicles 20:22

 The enemies became so confused they turned on their own and as God promised, He was victorious in the battle on Judah’s behalf. Their praise was sure evidence of their faith..It’s tough to praise in the thick of the battle but keep praising anyway.  Let your faith arise as you live it out daily in your lifestyle.‪strong>

“Do not be afraid: do not be discouraged.  Go out to face them tomorrow and the Lord will be with you.”  

                                                                            2 Chronicles 20: 17b

Ten Giant Steps

Little Thoughts For Big Days
Little Thoughts For Big Days

Confused about where you should be and when, and just what it is that God has for you to do anyway? Do you wonder why He seems so slow and why answers don’t come quickly or maybe don’t come at all? At least not in black and white or simple and straight forward? Sometimes it seems like ten baby steps ahead and then five giant steps backwards. What on earth is going on? Why is life so difficult and moving forward so extremely painful?


Ho hum seasons are our calling as they lead us deeper into spiritual maturity! just keep moving faithfully, doing what you do to fulfil commitments and schedules. Make sure to rest to prevent burn out, but “rest assured” that God still leads in the giant steps backwards as well as the baby steps forward. He will fulfil His purpose in your life regardless of how useless and unimportant you feel. He refreshes parched souls and increases strength with His power. Everything you experience is customized just for your needs and He’ll make it work for you if you let Him. He may ultimately guide you through ten giant steps forward. Be refreshed and ready when He does.

“The Lord will guide you always and satisfy your needs in a sun scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.”
Isaiah 58:11
