What Can You Live Without?






How do you take your coffee, with or without sugar? Do you lock your car with or without keys in your hand?  Do you drive without checking your gas levels? Can you live with or without friends? How about without an old flame? What about religiously, do you live your  life without Jesus?  Life has a way of filling our days with trivial activities so you zombie your way through this life and live without what's important--a goal set towards Heaven.  Imagine never reading the Book of Genesis, the world would not know about creation, sin, the fall of man, God’s judgment, and the redemptive story of Jesus Christ. Where would you be if Jesus never came to earth? What control Satan would have on your life?  If you think sin and circumstance has you up at night, imagine your life with out Jesus!  Without him, there's no hope. It’s a life like a drifting ship without a sail; it aimlessly wandering through a sea with no future. Without Jesus, mankind would be doom. But bless be the God of the Heavens to not leave us without. Hope is what keeps us sane. it keeps us in the fight. If there were no hope, why bother living.  I need the Lord every day; every hour. I'm glad Jesus came so Satan can't throw us around like rag dolls and laugh about it.  He is going to laugh but he can't have his way.  You hold the  key to what Satan can do to you. When you sin, you invite Satan into your life. However by living for the Savior, Satan doesn't have an invitation to your life.  That's all due to Jesus death and coming out of the grave. 

Without….hummm...

I'm glad we're not. Aren't you?

I Got You!

Do you remember going to the arcades? You and your friends’ old rendezvous spot, battling for the top spot in one of the popular games. While you guys horsed around, a group of troublemakers bullied their way onto the machines? Your posy band together vowing to have each other’s back.  Now days, every man for himself. Someone will call 911 for you, any more than that would be heroic (Romans 5:7).  No one takes on any man’s cause anymore. The back-in-the-day phrase was "I got your back." 

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....

I Didn't See That Coming

Arriving at work, I put my lunch bag in the refrigerator, fired up the computer and  entered my logged on.  The phone rang.  "This is Ms. Swanson," I told the caller.  "Yes, right away."  I hung up the phone, reached for my keys and raced downstairs asking God to provide what I need from the spiritual realm. I wasn’t sure what I would run up against. A policeman was at my car writing a ticket. One of the sergeants’ saw my handicap placard on the seat and called me to come down quickly. While racing to the car, I noticed my IPhone watch on my arm. I wasn't allowed to wear it at work, especially with security violation written all over the action. I forgot to take it off! Supposed someone saw it, I could lose my job. Right at that moment I remembered to get my retainer from my purse when I put it in the truck. It could melt in the heat, costing a replacement cost of $300. All I can say is, "I didn't see that...
