Jesus Wept

John 11:35

Jesus Wept.

Shortest verse in the bible. Yet it holds so much power. Jesus wept over the death of his friend Lazarus. The Bible actually records three different times when Jesus cried, each time in a different place and for a different reason. Every single tear that Jesus wiped from his cheek is meaningful and significant.

Isn't it awesome to know that our savior, our creator had emotions and feelings just like us. There will be days, when we too will weep over situations in our lives. But as the tears roll down our cheeks, let's be confident in knowing that we are never ALONE. Jesus is with us & knows what pain feels like. Let's take comfort in him.

God Bless. . ...

A Broken Heart

Psalms 51:16-17

16-17 Going through the motions doesn’t please you,  a flawless performance is nothing to you.I learned God-worship when my pride was shattered.Heart-shattered lives ready for love don’t for a moment escape God’s notice.

Sometimes life breaks us in more ways then one. But when we're broken... that's the perfect time to run to Jesus..Because even when life breaks us...and everyone walks away. . We know that a broken heart is one thing GOD will never despise & he will ALWAYS embrace us..messed up and all.

Today, forget about everything else and run to Jesus.

Stop Pretending

Psalms 147:3

He heals the brokenhearted  and binds up their wounds.

All of us can relate to being brokenhearted at one point or other in our lives in our lives whether it was through sorrow, abuse, rejection, abandonment, guilt etc.

Most people who act like everything is fine are those hurting the most. Today, let's stop pretending. We must face it to fix it. Let's locate the hurt/wound and give it to God. God will only heal what we give him control over.

Remember before a "physician offers treatment for a patient they ask where does it hurt, how long has it been hurting and what caused it?"

God Bless You !

Compromising a Blessing ?

Judges 16:20 

Then she called, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!”He awoke from his sleep and thought, “I’ll go out as before and shake myself FREE.” But HE DID NOT KNOW that the Lord had left him.

Samson had supernatural strength because he was obedient to the Lord & had kept his commitment before the Lord. But it came to a point where Samson continued to COMPROMISE his strength by living in direct disobedience to what the Lord was asking of him. He got so deep into his sin that he hadn't even realized that the Spirit of the Lord had left him in the sense that he no longer blessed Samson with that supernatural strength.

Each one of us have been blessed with something SUPERNATURAL, something that only God can give and only we can use. Lets not COMPROMISE the blessings God has given us by living in direct disobedience to what GOD has called us to do.

Have a BLESSED day.

Is anything too hard for the Lord ?

Genesis 18:12-13

12 So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, “Will I have this joy after my husband and I have grown old?” 13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘How can I give birth to a child when I am so old?’ 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”

Sometimes like Sarah, our reaction is that we laugh to ourselves because when promised something it seems like an impossibility. But GOD says to us like he told Abraham. "Is ANYTHING too hard for the Lord"? Today let's HOLD onto God's promises even if they seem far fetched cause NOTHING is impossible for GOD.

Have a BLESSED weekend !
