" I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From where shall my help come?My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel Will neither slumber, nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not smite you by day, Nor the moon by night. The Lord will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. The Lord will guard your going out and your coming in From this time forth and forever." Psalm 121 (NASB)
While I was watching the afternoon news I saw a ten year old boy whose heart was working at a ten percent capacity. He would like a new heart for Christmas. If I could, I would give him mine. I hate the thought of a ten year old child suffering and I hate what his Momma must be going through.
Latter, I seen an older lady talking about health insurance. She said she hoped she'd never have to use her health care, but was glad it was there if she ever needed it. :) Reality is almost all of us, young or old, at some point in our life will have to go through the dying process. Very few will be ushered into a physical death without pain, or suffering. If we realize this, maybe we can accept our fate a little easier, when sickness comes calling in our life.
Knowing God holds my fate is so comforting for me. I will joyfully be here every minute He wants me to be here. Likewise, I'll depart to be with Him forever as soon as God calls my name. He will not have to ask me twice. :)
Happiness is a choice, but only God can give the peace that surpasses all understanding. I can't explain it. It's one of those things I wish I could take out of my heart- just for a few minutes and put in your heart so you could feel it, but I can't. Putting your trust and faith in God relieves the weight of the world, warms your heart and soul, and puts a song in your heart.
"Then Jesus again spoke to them saying, "I am the light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the Light of life." John 8:12 (NASB)
If you'll read the rest of John chapter 8, I think you'll be blessed. If you haven't already ask God's Holy Spirit to come into your life, I pray you will very soon. If you'll faithfully seek God I know you'll find Him. God Bless and keep you.
