WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

Posted on July 6, 2023 by atimetoshare.me

“We all face storms in life. Some are more difficult than others, but we all go through trials and tribulation. That’s why we have the gift of faith.” Joyce Meyer

Every step we take on this journey called life has been mapped out for us by the Creator of the universe. There will be twists and turns throughout the trip. We run into roadblocks and detours all the way. Yet, if we lose that wonderful gift from the Holy Spirit – faith – our travels are pointless. With each deviation from that which was originally intended for man, we can either stray and fail or continue and live.

It’s taken me a lifetime to finally realize that letting God carry me through the times when I can no longer walk, is the only way to live. That doesn’t mean the expedition is going to be clear sailing all the way. In fact, it seems the more difficult the trek, the closer we come to our Maker. Our final surrender to Him comes when our time of grace on this planet ends. We can then meet Him face to face in paradise and enjoy all that He has prepared for us.

Lord, help me to trust in you completely. I know that by doing so, you will lead the way in life here on earth and also in eternity. Give me strength to run the race, knowing that you are the One who knows what’s best for me and those I love. Amen!
