Stop Running like "Jonah" did!!!

-
I believe God wants to do something in my life if I will just keep holding on and stick with things like going to church and serving where I can.

I went to church Sunday...God always speaks to me in a profound way during worship...Yesterday was no exception. He spoke to me and how I have been like Jonah running from what God has plainly called me to do time after time I have ran from this and ran from that my whole life, especially when things have not gone the way that I thought that they should or when things got hard. 

It has been sooo easy just to walk out the door! I have walked out many doors in my Christian life and you know what, over half those I should have not walked out of them.   Oh GOD please forgive me for being stubborn and not listening for your voice!! 

I should be walking in healing right now, and not running from it!!!   But I am afraid to take that first step. God has healed me from a major debilitating mental illness. I really don't want to stay in this place of not trusting GOD when He has called me to step out of that boat like Peter!!! I am so afraid of sinking Jesus.  The boat has always been safe footing!!! I am in a good place and a safe church.  I am so loved there, and I should be taking hands of my family of GOD!

God, please help me to reach out not only to you but to my church leaders and take that final step of deliverance. That will the first step in walking in my ultimate healing.

It’s not that Complicated

  There is nothing complicated about hell…in fact it is very easy to get there.    I can assure you it’s not one big party with lots of rock music and sex.  Who would want to actually feel hells torment without any grace, mercy or relief. I do not know about you but I do not wish to go there If you intend to take the easy street then by all means be prepared for continual weeping and gnashing of teeth and the torment of eternal fiery punishment. Hell is not a complicated choice!!  Who would want to go there?  I would never desire to go there willingly.   Jesus came to this earth he hung on that cross as a human being   He was God in the flesh. There is not  a whole lot of preaching these days about going hell…we need to hear more fiery sermons from pulpits on Sunday mornings!!! Unrepentant sinners.will all go to hell.  It’s high time we repented of all our sins, and ask God to forgive you of all sin. Sin is sin and Jesus desires us to be in the kingdom of heaven with him for all eterni

Someday

FiveMinuteFriday One day the time will come when we breathe our last breath and close our eyes one last time...There is nothing we can do to stop that.  It is just one fact of life we all have to deal with. Death is inevitable, it will happen we can be sure of that. We cannot avoid it. Someday that door will open, and we will close the door to this life we now live... Are you ready for that "someday?"  The fact is that we are not guaranteed tomorrow. we should at all costs live each day as if it was our last day. If you knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that tomorrow was your last day to live on this earth, how would you do things differently or would you be content with the life you have lived up until this point?   As for me, I have always had a belief that there is a heaven and a hell.  I had a born-again experience at the age of eighteen.   It was after a very convicting church service. I had grown up in that church and was going through all the motions; but something signi

Not in a Hurry

A flower does not get in a hurry.  It takes its time to grow and bloom in beautiful and intrinsic ways. Just like us as believers we do not instantly bloom.  We  may start as a seed.  We want to be in such a hurry but it takes grace to be patient….and trust too.  It takes time and space to grow. Lots of tender loving care.   We shouldn’t worry about blooming for our time will come without one worry how we will turn out … Dear Jesus,  help me I pray to not be in a hurry or to compare my heart to to anyone else for in due time we will flourish and bloom like the red rose 🌹 on a sunny spring day…Amen.
