Where are we going?

The way we respond to painful situations in life demonstrates the level of trust we have in God. This is true in our lives and the lives of our kids. God has told us many times that He allows trials to perfect us and make us more like His Son. Trials are not to be dodged or avoided as much as they are to be endured for the sake of the lesson.

All want God to heal them, all want God to give them peace, joy, strength, to watch over us and help us. But FEW are willing to tell their neighbor about Jesus Christ few are willing to obey the Lord's commands to seek him first to seek Him at all in reality , because we only want God when we need Him, as if keeping our bible's closed keeps God at bay.

When is the last time you sought God? When is the last time you shared God?


When is the last time you trusted God?

Instead of crying wow is me, praise His name and ask Him where are we going God my Father?, Wherever we are going I will trust you and I know that you are with me in every situation ,and ask Him to let His glory shine through you as you walk with Him daily, praise His name that He has chosen you to be a vessel of honor.

Asking God the right question in the middle of a trial is an expression of your trust in Him. The question should not be, "How am I going to get out of this?", but rather, "Where are we going with this?" By changing "how" to "where", you illustrate your dependence on Him to teach you and your willingness to learn.

Romans 8:26-33 HCSB

In the same way the Spirit also joins to help in our weakness, because we do not know what to pray for as we should,  but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us   with unspoken groanings. And He who searches the hearts  knows the Spirit’s mind-set, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. We know that all things work together  for the good  of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose.   For those He foreknew He also predestined  to be conformed to the image of His Son,  so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.   And those He predestined, He also called; and those He called, He also justified;  and those He justified, He also glorified. What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He did not even spare His own Son but offered Him up for us all; how will He not also with Him grant us everything? Who can bring an accusation against God’s elect? God is the One who justifies.

A thin line

There is a thin yellow line that separates us from life and death.

Have you ever thought about the dividing line on the road, the line between life and death? That death is so close to you and the one you just passed, an ill timed swerve, loss of control, or someone not paying attention they or you cross the yellow line and, bam it's over.

Life is like that we don't know what waits for us around the bend, there are many paths that we can take but there is only one path that leads to an abundant eternal life with God, that is through Jesus Christ.

The Bible tells there is a time to be born the time to die. And just like you did not choose your day to be born you will not choose the day you die.

We drive near that thin everyday, between us and eternity is nothing more than our next breath, we are all sinners but Christians have sought God forgiveness of sins through salvation by the blood of Jesus Christ.

If today your life crossed the line where would you spend eternity only those who put their faith in Jesus Christ will be with God in heaven.

Proverbs 14:8-12 HCSB

The sensible man’s wisdom is to consider his way, but the stupidity of fools deceives them. Fools mock at making restitution, but there is goodwill among the upright. The heart knows its own bitterness, and no outsider shares in its joy. The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will stand.   There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.

John 3:16-18 HCSB

“For God loved  the world in this way:  He gave His One and Only  Son,  so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.    For God did not send His Son into the world that He might condemn  the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. Anyone who believes in Him is not condemned, but anyone who does not believe is already condemned,  because he has not believed in the name  of the One and Only Son  of God.

John 14:6-7, 10 HCSB

Jesus told him, “I am  the way,  the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. “If you know Me, you will also know    My Father.  From now on you do know Him  and have seen Him.” Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me?  The words I speak to you I do not speak on My own.  The Father who lives in Me does His works.
