So, I got up this morning the same routine I do every Sunday morning I log onto my church's web site and read the daily bible verse....
I lift up my eyes to the hills -- where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.
Psalms 121 Vs 1-2
As I read this passage It was apparent that I do know where my help comes from but sometimes I don't listen or see it when it is right in front of my nose. So, as I went to church today during Sunday School we had a new topic and as I listened to our wonderful pastor teach us I was thinking back to how many times I got out of the boat and had to rely on Jesus to keep me on track and when I did not rely on Jesus to keep me on track Wow... how things went a muck. It also struck me on how many people God places in our lives to help us keep on track...
After church and I was driving home my mind keep going back to how many people are in my life to help me keep on track.... All I had to do was think over the last couple of weeks and what has been going on in my life...
My girlfriend Nicole was the first person I though of ... She also goes to my church and we are so a like in our thinking and problem solving... What an amazing spirit she has and how up lifted and how I know just what to do after she and I talk even it's only for a few minutes on a text or in person.
I also thought of several family members ... my dad is a big one and one being my brother... I am amazed every time I am around him and listen to him talking how loving, understanding, down to earth, and just how much he uplifts me... I can see God's work within him... What a joy to have him in my life and to be able to call him my brother....
Then I look at the strength within my own family... my husband and my kids... even though all of my kids have special needs they each have their own way of uplifting my day.... my husband in his way of knowing to help or to just leave me be without words being said... It's amazing to me...
The most closest person I know to GOD would be my Pastor's - Pastor Rob and Pastor Ben... No matter what is going on or how frazzled I might be they know what to say. It's an uplifting feeling to know how much they both care and can show you with a smile, a how are you or just a let me know if you need anything... Very, Very thankful to GOD for directing us to Crossroads!!
So, I really do understand by thinking and praying about our Sunday School lesson how I have jumped the ship many times and each time Jesus has had some person their to guide me so I don't sink... It's amazing the love that GOD shows me every day in my life and some days I might not get it but thinking back it's there.....
I am hoping and praying if you are reading this you take the time to think about how and when you've had to jump the ship of life... you keep your eyes on GOD and he will never let you sink! If you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus... stop reading this and pray and ask GOD into your life... I can promise you if you do your life will never be the same and you will always know that you will never sink!!
