Walk in My Shoes

I've seen and had a lot of tragedy in my life. I would never want anyone to walk in my shoes. My shoes are wide and flat.  I've experienced lots of sadness in my shoes. I wished someone else could wear them but unfortunately, God gave me those shoes. His plan for me outweighed the pain I've endured. He had me in mind for my shoes. If you are feeling overwhelm with tight shoes, God gave you just what you could handle. Your shoes my seem squeezed and tight. They may seem shorter than you would have liked them but wearing anyone else's shoes would cause you much distress. Learn to trust God in where he has you. Trust me, you are much better than you were this time last year in your shoes.  Your shoes helped you to leap mountains of troubles you wouldn't otherwise be able to handle it.  Equally, Jesus shoes helped Him walked up Calvary's hill. The weight of the world were on His feet literally. Would you want to walk in His shoes? Today, someone around you may feel his or her shoes are very tight.  Ask them to walk in Jesus shoes for a minute.  That person will realize his or her shoes are just right for them. Get out there and minister to the hurting as you "...Walk in the light, as he is in the light..." Be blessed.

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before....

Trust God

Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight ( NIV ). “Police, Police, a young man stole my bike.”   Minutes earlier the gentleman stops at the local store. Thirsty from the summer heat, he decides to get a drink.   Dismounting his bike, a kind young man greets him with a smile and offers to watch the bike. Grateful for the offer, the gentleman hands over the bike.   He enters the store. On returning, the bike and young man had vanished. The gentleman had a good heart, but he had misplaced trust.   Trust in the Lord is paramount (Hebrews 11:6). Life cannot be maneuver through our wisdom, we need the wisdom of the Savior.   He alone can handle our life cycle issues.   A fulfill and successful life with Jesus comes through obedience and surrender. The Lord then guides us into an everlasting peace despite difficulties and h...

Sabotage

It’s those times when you do the wrong thing for the right reason you get caught. Those moments catch you off guard. It almost happened to me. While going out the door, a thought came to me to take my gun. I figured after the boys’ baseball game, I would go to the gun range.   Here’s the deal, the baseball game was on base. The base has a strict rule about bring artillery on its grounds.   To ensure everyone adheres to the rule, security police checks cars as a preventive measures. Thus far, my car hasn’t been checked—yet. Satan whispered in my ear to take my gun with me. Security police won’t pull me over. Besides, it would take me 45 minutes to go back home to pick it up after the game. If I bring it, I can save gas and time. Now, just because that sound good in my head doesn’t mean the scene would play out that way. I felt like I was being setup. Someone else in the Bible was setup like this: Judas. What made him think betraying the Son of God was a good thing? It mu...
