1 TH 5:21 Test all things; hold fast what is good...
Have you ever felt tested at every point in life? Thus is the season for me. Let me begin by saying this isnt a blog that I wrote to complain, but rather lift the name of Jesus. This morning I found out I'll be working yet again another Sunday. As much as I have discussed my need to be at church with my boss, he just doesnt understand, and scheduals me regularly...Ohh to walk in the world of the Godless.
I had to recently make a choice of friends in my previous church, and being obedient to God and living Holy. I love and miss my brothers and sisters, and feel tormented because they now face the same choices as myself. I pray Gods strength and understanding for them. In the end we all must answer for our lives.
The ultimate test, my daughter. She is now approaching her pre teen years, ( turns 12 this month) and lives with her mother. Let me just say this....I try to honor her mom, and show respect....but it is hard when she lives in sin with two men, and calls herself going to church and claims to be a Holy Ghost filled christian. My daughter seeks after God more than any kid I know, and yearns to live Holy, been babtised in Jesus' name, and speaks in tounges. I cringe because my daughter calls me crying because her mother cuts her hair, and makes her wear pants. The anger of a father wells up inside me, but the Holy Ghost in me tells me to lay it in His hands.
I am so thankful for my Jesus! He is my comforter. My renewer of hope. My strength when I have none of my own. I love you almighty Lord. THROUGH MY TESTS, I STILL REMAIN BLESSED!!!!!!!
