Hello again my most Wonderful World Wide Family. I love you all so very much. I am finally getting back to writing to you. I have been so busy lately. I have been attending a wonderful Bible study during the week. I am continuing to attend an awesome grief counseling group,and I have started teaching a Bible study at the local Mission in my area. This has been a really amazing privilege. I love it!
Dear LORD, Thank You for this awesome opportunity to come to You in prayer, praise and worship. We love You LORD. Thank You that You are not only the Creator of the entire universe and everyone and everything in it; but You are also our Abba Adonai. Our Daddy, LORD and Master. Thank You that You love to have an intimate relationship with us, Your children. You are present with us in this journey of our lives. Thank You that You protect us and guide us and all of our generations.
We ask that You use us LORD. Help us to fulfill the purpose and destiny that You created us for. Help us to love our fellow brothers and sisters no matter where they live in the world. Help us not to turn our heads away and close our eyes and hearts to the pain and needs of others. Instead give us a burning desire to reach out and be Your Heart and Hands extended to a hurting world. We love You and Praise You LORD. In Jesus Precious Name we pray and Thank You in advance. Amen. Glory to God!
The title of this letter was the title that I used for one of my Bible studies. My thought process was as follows:
“What if” instead of instead of saying, “If only” I had more money I would be happier; we would be grateful to our LORD for what we do have. What if we meditated upon the Bible verse in:
PHILIPPIANS 4:19 MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL OF MY NEEDS ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES AND GLORY IN CHRIST JESUS.
“What if” instead of saying, “If only” I wasn’t so sick, I could do more with my life; we would trust in God’s WORD of TRUTH that supercedes fact, that states:
PSALM 103:2, 3 PRAISE THE LORD OH MY SOUL, AND FORGET NOT ALL HIS BENEFITS-WHO FORGIVES ALL YOUR SINS AND HEALS ALL YOUR DISEASES.
“What if” instead of saying “if only” these emotions of depression didn’t overwhelm me, I could be a better parent our spouse; we felt inner strength take over us as we focused on this verse:
ROMANS 8:37 I AM MORE THAN A CONQUEROR IN CHRIST JESUS WHO LOVES ME
“What if” instead of saying “if only” I didn’t feel so inferior and suffer from low self esteem; you believed deep in your spirit and soul the following verse:
1 JOHN 4:4 YOU ARE OF GOD, LITTLE CHILDREN, AND HAVE OVERCOME THEM; BECAUSE GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN YOU THAN he who is in the world.
So sorry, I have to go for now. I love you all so very much. You are forever in my prayers. Most importantly Jesus Loves you!
