Fire and Water

Ever felt burnt?

By the many events that occur in life?

Ever had a situation where you felt like you were about to drown?

In a sea of emotions? A whirlwind of occurrences that seem to toss you to and fro?

Things happen...

Everyday...

But The One who LIVES has said,

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them,

for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you" Deut 31:6


Not only that, HE also promised,

When you pass through the waters,

I will be with you;

and when you pass through the rivers,

they will not sweep over you.

When you walk through the fire,

you will not be burned;

the flames will not set you ablaze; Isaiah 43:2

So yes, you may walk through the fire and pass through the water,

But He has promised; you will not be burnt, neither will the waters sweep over you...

So just let the feelings of being burnt be what they just are. Feelings.

I always thought crying when you were hurt was a sign of weakness
But I was hurt one day and crying and God told me it was okay
He created tears and He stood with me while I cried
Then HE wiped my tears away and told me it was okay
That HE was in control anyway
I cried in HIS PRESENCE then I felt HIS JOY
That, no one can take away
And after you've cried, stand up
and dance because you still have the victory anyway.
Ha ha.

Romans 8 : 35 - 39

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?

Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

As it is written:

“ For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”

Yet in all these things,

we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

For I am persuaded

that neither death nor life,

nor angels nor principalities nor powers,

nor things present nor things to come,

nor height nor depth,

nor any other created thing,

shall be able to separate us

from the love of God

which is in

Christ Jesus our Lord.

* We thank God for HIS LOVE, protection, grace, mercies and kindness towards us. We also thank HIM for HIS interests in our destinies and working everything out for our good according to HIS perfect will and purpose. Amazing time @ n220. GOD LOVES us*

A new season is starting. Are you preparing for it? Get closer to God. HE will direct you.
