No Matter What!

David loved God! Have you ever been hurt by something and through your hurt still managed to maintain a relationship with your loved one and cater to their heart. David's problems teach us that NO MATTER WHAT, go back TO GOD! Give God glory even in the BAD situation, even in the WORST situation, even in the face of your enemies - GIVE GOD THE GLORY!
 
A few weeks ago we read the 3rd Psalm (Sat, 7/8). It was David's cry to God while he was on the run from his son Absalom. What I find amazing about David is that in this time of distress he took care of God's business to the point where he wrote the 4th and 5th Psalms and picked the instruments that they were to be played to.The 4th Psalm for a stringed instrument starts as a prayer and then words to his enemies to compel them to serve God and show them the error of their ways and he finishes with a praise. The 5th Psalm (for a flute) reads in the same manner.
 

Read the 4th and 5th Psalm. Share it with someone. Pray about it for yourself. Encourage someone today.

Strengthen Me!

Psalm 119:28 28  My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word. There will be days when we feel beat up.  There are days when the weight of the world is on our shoulders. It is in those hard times that we must tell God our truth.  We must confess how we really feel. Lord, I'm hurt.  Lord, I'm tired.  Lord, I don't think I can handle this anymore. When we pour out our heart to God, we are giving Him access to comfort and strengthen us.  His Word says, that He will NEVER leave us nor forsake us.  His Word says, He uplifts us with His right hand.  His Word says, I have loved you with an everlasting love.  His Word says, cast all of your cares on Me. I pray that as you go through this weekend that the Word of God strengthens you for whatever and everything that you are facing.

Be Free From Denial!

Have you ever experienced that feeling when you finally get something off of your chest?  You feel free, it's as a though a weight has been lifted up and off of you.  The same feeling can be experienced when we admit how we really feel.  Maybe you've been sad, angry, frustrated, depressed or otherwise. God wants us to come to Him, tell Him how we feel and give these feelings to Him.  The Bible instructs us to cast our cares onto Him.  We are supposed to throw these issues off of ourselves and allow God to care for us. Don't live in denial.  Stop walking around pretending that everything is all right!  Shake yourself free from pain and anguish!  Live and Be Free from DENIAL! via  Daily Prompt: Denial

Tip of the Day!

PRAY! "In Thessalonians 5:17, we are reminded to "Pray without ceasing".  As you are walking to a coworker's office, holding on the phone, waiting for a meeting to start, or doing a simple task, lift you company and coworkers up to the LORD." Daily Wisdom for the Workplace by Pamela McQuade. Whether you are at work, at home, at school, church, a relatives house, or wherever, we must remember to pray.  Depression creeps in when we lose our line of communication with God.  It is vital to keep that relationship in its proper place, 1st and foremost.  It is very important that we talk with God and listen to Him too.  God bless you.
