I am not where I want to be but I know I am where God wants me to be. I struggle day to day but remain thankful for what I have and most importantly where I am going. The world seems to be falling apart yet I am content knowing that the decline in society is not a surprise. “But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.” 2 Timothy 3:13
I can only do my best while understanding that without our Creator I would be wandering aimlessly only to end in death. It saddens me to think that some truly believe their only purpose is to excel among men just to die with nothing.
Remember this simple analogy…the body does not have a soul, the soul has a body. Recognize who and what you are. Take care of your body as best you can but know that your body will become broken and frail so even more importantly take care of your soul as it is what can survive death.
Psalm 103:1
A Psalm of David.
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
And all that is within me, bless His holy name.
Psalm 121:7
The Lord will protect you from all evil;
He will keep your soul.
Ecclesiastes 12:7
…then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.
Lord I am thankful for all that you have provided me. I am thankful for the triumphs and the trials that strengthen me. I pray that all who take the time to read this look within and recognize that they are so much more than skin and bones and that their eternal soul is what matters most. I pray that knowledge abounds that all will know that no religion, no ritual and no self created belief will save them but rather through your word all has been explained and that the gift of salvation is free to those who accept. Amen.
