Recycle It

Little Thoughts For Big Days
Little Thoughts For Big Days

So ~ what about all those prayers that you’ve prayed and it seems like no answers come? Well, beautiful souls, they are heard…every single one of them, you just can’t see the big picture yet. Do not lose heart and hope just because you can’t see beyond your humanity. His answers are in a whole different realm other than our little worlds of influence. Just wait and pray on. God doesn’t work to impress us! Contrary to popular belief, He doesn’t put together a neat and pretty little package just because we pray and then present it to us just because we desire it more than anything. No ~ His work goes deeper than surface pretty and plunges headlong into the heart/s and soul/s of the matter. All those issues that we think might be ten giant steps backward are quite possibly three God steps forward in His economy and scheme of things. He won’t waste His energy on nothingness and wrong moves. As a matter of fact, He wastes nothing. He sends it, pain and all, to His recycling program and remoulds and remakes beauty from ashes. You see, we don’t understand His perfecting, designing skills, nor will we ever! Even after we see the final outcome with our own eyes, we will not be able to piece together His plan of action. It’s too involved ~ too great ~ too out of this world and too awesome to go figure. As a matter of fact His works are so mysterious that when things look like they couldn’t get any worse, if you’ve been praying in His will, be assured that in God’s economy of things that disappointment is “in the big picture” His appointment for good things to come. Oh, if we could just be thankful for the little things and tell Him so and watch Him work through our grateful hearts. His work is not a quick fix or an overnight solution. It may take some healing time with Him, but while He’s working on it, will He find us faithful to the end?

John 14:13
“Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.”

Romans 8:28
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

What Do We Do With That?

Little Thoughts For Big Days
Little Thoughts For Big Days

So, was it really so? Did a co – pilot take down the plane? So ~ then no one really knows who’s flying our planes these days, taking who knows who to who knows where ~ or not??? Just sayin’
— feeling confused.

So what do we do with that? This world is so messed up and apparently we can’t trust the pilots, even though they’ve made it through their high quality testing and all security rules and regulations. On board to assist in the flight of a plane and instead take it over and take it down with all passengers in one big explosion! How senseless? How crazy? How would this happen with our strict security regulations of air flight? No answers and never any concrete solutions. Not in this world.

There are no concrete solutions to the abstractness of everything going on around us? It appears the more men try to fix issues and take control the more out of hand it gets. It shakes the very core of our being and strikes fear into our souls. For sure this is a time when we need our faith in God to be a substantial concrete foundation for our fleeting lives; built on the solid rock that can’t move or wash away or change with the winds, or the times. An abstract faith in stuff won’t cut it to give us any sense of peace because possessions are here today and gone tomorrow. They explode in plane crashes, go up in smoke with fires, rust and decay in bad weather. Yeah, maybe they’re  fun for a time but without any promise of hope!  We need God ~ the One True sovereign God who knows the end from the beginning and knows that the world is the way it is because sin is sin and the world is full of it. The One who knows planes will go down, trains will derail, cars will crash, people will kill, and thieves will steal! The One who knows fires will devastate, tsunamis will flood, earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes and tornadoes will destroy! He knows all about the bad things and the sin that rampages the world. and yet, in His love, He came to offer the salvation solution and free us from its icy grip. The world won’t heal until it’s people do and the salvation God offers is the only way!

Turning, repenting, humbling and healing. It’s the only way to find peace in a senseless world where there is no peace.

2 Chronicles 7: 13 -14
“If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land. “Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place.…

Don’t Give Up Now

Keep On Keeping On
Keep On Keeping On

So many things don’t always turn out the way we think they should “when” we think they should. That doesn’t make our hope wrong or make it wrong to anticipate the hope of our heart. Nor does it give us the right to give up, or throw in the towel. Neither should “not receiving” what we desire shake our faith. Our faith is more than our circumstances. It’s more than our heart’s desire. It’s more than our successes and it’s more than the love of our life. Real faith is not merely receiving from God what we want, but it is accepting from God what He gives. When we can get to that point beautiful souls, When we can accept the disappointments as His appointments, then He can begin to show us His plan. Perhaps He’s just ushered you into the real place of His divine purpose. For that reason we must keep going!! We must persevere, keep going strong in the faith ~ strengthened in the Hope that we have in Christ. He is victorious and that victory is ours. Claim it my friend, even when you don’t feel it, or see it. He embraces us with grace for the moment, but that grace dispenses freely on the obedient who follow Him through those tough times.

To persevere means to stick it out until the end; in the Christian context, it means to hold onto your faith through thick and thin, in every trial, to the end of this earthly life. It is true that perseverance is not an easy assignment. In fact, throughout the Bible we see believers subjected to tests of their faith, some of which seem extraordinarily difficult. Abraham told to sacrifice his son, Daniel in the lions’ den, Joseph in prison and Jeremiah in the miry pit are all examples of extreme situations that called for huge faith in God on the part of these believers.

[Hebrews 10:36] “Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that He has promised.” It is not enough to have one moment of faith with no growth, no fruit, and no learning, because spiritual fruit is a vital ingredient and cannot be omitted. If we persevere in the faith, we remain in the will of God. Those who do His will, enter His kingdom (Matthew 7:21).
