Thank You Father God Day 355

Isaiah 26:4  Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD is the Rock eternal.

The LORD is our Rock, the solid foundation on which we stand, One Nation Under God.  Last week the east coast was stirred, but not shaken from the foundation of our God.  An earthquake, a hurricane and tornadoes, all within a matter of days, while Jesus took the time for a personal visit with Jillian and I by the lilac bush, wow!

The fear, the uncertainty and the unknown ushering in reality of our faith or lack there of; God is my rock, is he yours?  Did you pray as the hurricane threatened our area?  What is really important?   Did you help your neighbors?   Thanks to the lessons that our country learned from Katrina, we prepared for the worst, while hoping ( praying) for the best!   Sadly, there were 35 lives lost, property damaged ,devistation and major inconveniences, but what did learn?  Is our sinful nature controlling our destiny?  Is God pleading for our attention, does He just what us to depend completely on Him?  God is in control and we are not! 

Jeremiah 36:3  Perhaps when the people of Judah hear about every disaster I plan to inflict on them, each of them will turn from his wicked way; then I will forgive their wickedness and their sin.

Isaiah 48:17-18  This is what the LORD says---your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel;  "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.  If only you had paid attention to my commands your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the the sea.  Your descendants would have been like the sand, your children like it numberless grains; their names would never be cut off nor destroyed from before me."

Have you surrendered your will and life to the LORD?  No time like the present!  Father God, I believe that your son, Jesus Christ lived and died on the cross for the forgiveness of  "MY SINS."   Father God, please  forgive my ignorance and arrogant ways.  Heavenly, Father I surrender my life to you, I love you with all my heart, soul and mind.   Father, please remove the burdens that I can no longer carry, I desire to live my life in your perfect will. AMEN.

Matthew 1:21  She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sin.

If you prayed this prayer to the LORD and truly meant it from your heart, God will do the necessary work and healing to restore you to the child of God which you were created.  He will direct your steps and actions, expect changes from the inside out!  Stay connected to the LORD your GOD!

Matthew 11:28-29 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, For I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

Matthew 28:19-20  Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.  And surely I am with you always, to the end of the age.

Did you pray from your heart.... GOD LOVES YOU!   Mandy, Stacey, Laurie everyone reading this, Amen, thank you, LORD!
