Pulled Pork - Barbeque Anyone??

The title of this blog refers to thinking on positive things. That being said, I need to be honest about life's ups and downs. In the previous post I mentioned God pulling us apart for His glory. Tonight I have to be honest and tell you that I feel like a plate of Authentic North Carolina BBQ, pulled apart into strands and glopped on the plate in a heap.

What does God think when I raise my fist to Him in defiant anger? Or two minutes later hears me call for Him with arms raised just wanting to be held in His loving arms? What does He think as my attitude slides southward, my brain realizes it and for the moment my heart doesn't care?

How blessed I am, that forgiveness from Him comes quick and true when I confess the sin. I am trusting that joy will come in the morning and that this too shall pass.

LORD, I confess my stubbornness in holding on to the hurt, and the anger in my heart. Please wash away any seed of bitterness before it can grow bigger. Please cover me with Your peace.
Amen.

Blessed Beyond Measure

I'm not quite sure where to start on this one, there have been so many changes in our lives in the past few years that have all led up to this point.  I am amazed at how God uses events in our lives to pull us apart and bring us back together, all for His glory.

Family, marriage and life in general for me are all a major miracle...still in progress, but a miracle of grand proportions.

I once heard it said that for something to be a huge miracle, there must be insurmountable, impossible circumstances.  We seem to fit that category, and I am no longer of the belief that anything is impossible.

Mark 10:27 "Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."


YES and AMEN!
