"In a short while, this will be a long time ago!"

While enjoying dinner with some dear friends, in reference to the topic of conversation someone said; "In a short while, this will be a long time ago"!!! He couldn't remember where he heard the statement nor who had said it, movie, news, etc....but in the context of my frame of Spirit at the moment, God used it to speak volumes to me!! I have no idea of its original intent but I do know God used those words to rejuvenate my Spirit and Hope!!! Whatever you are going through, enduring, facing, putting up with, tolerating, just remember; "IN A SHORT WHILE, THIS WILL BE A LONG TIME AGO"!!!

"And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea, And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them. And the sea arose by reason of a GREAT WIND that blew. So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. But he saith unto them, It is I; BE NOT AFRAID; Then they WILLINGLY received him into the ship: and IMMEDIATELY the ship was at the land whither they went." ‭(John‬ ‭6:16-21‬ ‭KJV‬‬)

"IT WILL BE OVER SOON!!!"

"Spiritual Transaction"

We put the Word in us and it will flow out of us in word and deed!!! When this "Spiritual Transaction" takes place in LOVE through FAITH by GRACE, The God of "All Grace" will overtake us with His Blessings and Favor!!!! Amen!!!!

"And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God."
‭"‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭28:2‬ ‭KJV‬‬" Read Proverbs 3:1-10

Stress/Anxiety/Fear/Trouble

You won't out run it...
You won't outsmart it...
You won't outlive it.....

In the end it will win, you are not that good at what you do. It has far more training and experience, stress can cause anything to create anxiety!! It can turn any dream into a nightmare, any day of the week!!

"The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all."
(‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34:17-19‬ ‭KJV‬‬)

You have to be delivered!!!

How God works......

"For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another."(Psalms‬ ‭75:6-7‬)

God will take care of His Own and He often uses unusual chosen vessels to do so..... Pharaoh fed Israel for over 400 years, Cyrus of Persia (Iran) delivered Israel from the Babylon captivity, Moses used Egyptian Gold to build the Tabernacle in the Wilderness!! King Solomon made business deals with Hiram, King of Tyre, to get the magnificent "Temple of Solomon" built and ready for Worship!! Prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel denounced Tyre but years later when Jesus visited Tyre He was well received!! It could quiet possibly have been a harvest on the good work of King Hiram by helping King Solomon establish a House of Worship in Israel centuries earlier!! God doesn't forget anyone that helps His people!!! God sees the "Big Picture" and works among nations in unusual ways using unusual people to accomplish His Purpose at various times!!! Trust Him!!!

Love is a two way street!!!

Father, I receive all that you have prepared for me today, tomorrow and the rest of my journey because I love you and I know that you love me!!!

"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the THINGS which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE HIM. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God."
(‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:9-10‬ ‭KJV‬‬)
