Storms of life

 

IMG_7440

Last week was full of struggles and storms in trying to find a house,to frustrations with family issues. Every day is not promised to us to be  full of sunshine. The Lord Jesus does promise to send a helper to guide us through the storm.

John 14:26

“But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”

 

James 1:2-3

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
Knowing [this], that the trying of your faith worketh patience.”

Diver Temptations- does not mean sin- but various trials.

Each trial is made to strengthen us in our faith and Character- I am sorry to say at times I think I failed the test. I was weak, and worn. I felt alone in trying to deal with the pressure of packing,schooling, home maintenance, as well as trying to find where The Lord would have us be.  All  of this overwhelming me to a point of desperation and  a strong desire of peace.

The week is anew and this is my prayer:

Psalm 143:8-12

Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.


Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.


Teach me to do thy will; for thou [art] my God: thy spirit [is] good; lead me into the land of uprightness.


Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.


And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I [am] thy servant.

In Jesus Name-

Amen

Whisperings

Some of you know I have lots of children. Seven to be exact, and most of them are older and Most of them are young men except for one boy.   Lately one of my youngmen have been struggling. He works at an amusement park, and is around people all day long who standards, or morals do not quite match what we(through God's grace) have tried to instill in him. All day long he is whispered at about what he should have, and what he should be doing at "his age".  Today while reading the Word these verses stood out.... Proverbs 23 15  My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. 16  Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things. 17  Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the  Lord  all the day long His heart started to "envy" what these whisperers were saying to him and started to feel like he has been missing out on something in life.  Really?  How do we envy sinners?  How do we as professing believers say "
