BOUNCING BACK
Heey Peeps,
After being M.I.A for a looong time,am baaaack. While I was away so many things have happened going through the roller coaster that is my life.As much as the ride has not been all thrilling with ups and crazy downs am glad to get a compliment from someone that I look good and fresh despite everything.
Joel Osteen says that,"No matter whats happening in your life,you are no defined by your circumstances."We are all equipped with the ability to make choices.We just have to declare and believe that our best days are ahead.
Happy National Hamburger Day.

A GREAT MYSTERY
Many people love mysteries.Its exciting to put ourselves in the shoes of a detective or to try and figure out 'who did it' as we turn the pages of a mystery novel.But there is a cliffhanger that will never resolve-until we experience it ourselves.
Those of us who have watched in sadness as someone else close to us has died may wonder about their new existence.Our hearts ache to know what they are doing and where they are.
If they had trusted Jesus Christ as savior we know they are in heaven.But for now a veil separates us from our loved ones and we cannot see behind it.
We do have a few clues about this mystery though.We know that our departed loved ones are enjoying Gods presence(2 Corinthians 5:8).We also know that they are recognizable and conscious of their surroundings,just like the rich man and the beggar Jesus spoke of in Luke 16;22-23.And we know that they haven't yet received the perfect body that will be theirs when Christ returns(1 Thessalonians 4:13-17)
Beyond that we are left with this truth;
God in His matchless love and power is planning a glorious reunion.Then our eternal rejoicing will begin.The last page of this mystery has a happy ending.

SING TO THE LORD
Its as though a sinister stranger comes knocking on your door.You must let him in for he knocks insistently and will not go away.He is sorrow personified.
You believe no one sees your tears and you feel all alone-but God sees them and he understands.
"Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning"(Psalm30:5)
We remember as David did that Gods love and favor lasts for a lifetime.He has promised never to leave us nor forsake us.When Gods love comes into our thoughts,our feelings of sorrow and dread flee.
"We can rise to greet the day with shouts of singing praise for His mercy,guidance and protection.We rejoice in His Holy name"(Psalm 30;11-12)
No matter our circumstances,lets sing to the Lord once again.

OUT OF THE DUST
Feeling low?.....Struggling with one of life's worst case scenarios?....You're not alone.
It would be fantastic if we could recite some spiritually charged words and make all of our problems go away,but that's just not going to happen.
Life is not all about smiles and happy hearts-even for the people of God.Yet even from the darkest expressions of sadness can come the hope of help.
The despair of the Psalmist recorded in Psalm 119 leads to the promise of comfort and mercy.Out of tribulation can arise new understanding and strength.The Psalmist freely expressed his feelings and his trust that God would take care of him.
"My soul clings to the dust."(v.25) Even in the midst of deep trials,the Psalmist was committed to obeying God.
Let us express our despair to the Lord-but don't stop there.Ask Him for mercy and strength.Commit to obeying him.Cling to His promises in the scriptures.He will be faithful to see you through any trial.
"Let your tender mercies come to me,that I may live." (v.77)

TRUST IN GOD-DONT BE AFRAID-YOU WILL CONQUER
-You get grapes,you complain about the seeds.
-You get beautiful red roses,you complain about the thorns.
-You only see the bottle as half empty.
Don't look at life through dark glasses and thank God for His gracious provision.Think about Gods love for you.Then instead of complaining about thorns,you'll will be thankful for the Roses
