Sometimes the lights go out.
The electricity gets disconnected and wrecks havoc.
Normal everyday life turns into anything but.
It's scary, its inconvenient, its frustrating;no water, heat, etc etc.
What would you do if it was the whole town, city or state? What if it lasted for more than a couple of hours but went into days and weeks?
What would your reaction be to this situation?
Seriously now, how prepared are you?
Some of you right now are thankful and confident because you have a generator in the corner of the garage that can be pulled out at a moments notice. You have taken precaution and are prepared.
Well, I too have a generator "hard-wired" into my "life".
HIS name is JESUS.
When life is out of my control and I am cowering with fear HE kicks in! His promises never run out and HIS grace and strength are always available and sufficient.
But friend, remember even a generator will not run unless it has fuel. The virgins with their oil lamps recognized this too late and while they ran to get ready the Bridegroom came and they missed it.
Be fueled up and ready to go and you will be ready for what ever the future might hold.
He holds you....remember?!
Proverbs 31:26 .....and she laughs at the future

GOOD NEWS!
The Lord has made a Way of Escape!
1 Corinthians 10:13:
"no temptation has seized you except what is common to man. God is faithful, He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it."
He says that there is NO temptation too great that His Grace is not greater still.
In Titus 2:11-13, it reads; "God's Saving Grace has appeared to all people. It teaches us to say NO to godless ways and sinful longings.
We must control ourselves.
We must do what is right.
We must lead godly lives in today's world.
That's how we should live as we wait for the blessed hope God has given us.
So instead of thinking out hard it is ~ how impossible it seems ~ rely on Jesus and stand on His Word. He will see to it that It works Its grace into you so that you may stand firm waiting for the day of His return.
Onward Christian Soldiers!
Blessings

A Wonderful Savior!
It's late and I'm tired.
I was going to skip tonite but this song has come to me as I've climbed the stairs to bed
OH~ What a wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord
He hideth me ~ I so well know it!
PS this reminds me of the small country church that I grew up in!
Why don't you sing along with this beautiful truth by Fanny Crosby!

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
Refrain
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life with the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life with the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.
A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.
Refrain
With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,
And filled with His fullness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God
For such a Redeemer as mine!
And filled with His fullness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God
For such a Redeemer as mine!
Refrain
When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love
I’ll shout with the millions on high.
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love
I’ll shout with the millions on high.
Refrain

You Are NOT Alone
YOU are a CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH GOD!
Your circumstances and situations in this life are NOT who you are!
You have WORTH
You have been MADE IN HIS IMAGE
There is a plan WITH YOUR NAME ON IT
You have access to God at the very mention of HIS name
His arm WILL NEVER be too short
There is NOTHING that is too difficult for Him
You are not alone
Look up.... Listen....He is here right now. Your burdens He want to bear.
~Let HIM~
"I will never leave you or forsake you " "And remember, I am with you always, day by day, until the Close of the Age"

It's a DONE deal!

I will change your name,
You shall no longer be called
Wounded, outcast, lonely or afraid.
I will change your name,
Your new name shall be
Confidence, joyfulness, overcoming one,
Faithfulness, friend of God,
One who seeks My face.

Look in the mirror. Yes, same old you with a brand new name! The hardest part is done now to just believe it! You are no longer an orphan and your Father has called you by a new name! Don't let anyone say differently!
