Well, I guess sometimes this blog is more therapeutic for me that beneficial to its readers, with a blank box waiting for me to type words every morning it becomes sometimes difficult to provide insight when the Devil or life is pounding pretty hard.  We as Christians should always take the valleys of life and look at them through Christ’s eyes; we should evaluate them with His standards.  And it is very easy to say but sometimes it is very hard to do. There are times that we get so bogged down in the garbage that we don’t even want to take our head out of the sand.  Well we (my family and I) have had one of those weeks!  I have fought tooth and nail to keep from just sticking my head in the sand and saying “forget it”.  And there have been a time where looking at things from Christ’s eyes was very easy and other times when it was extremely difficult.  But as always the Lord has ways of providing hope and ways to convey His love.  This was sent to me in an email and I thought it was a great insight for the day, so I wanted to share it with you.

Remember…..Just going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.

Each and everyone one of us is going through tough times right now, but God is getting ready to bless you in a way that only He can. Keep the faith.

 This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards. Let’s continue to pray for one another.

The Prayer:

Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. Amen.

So that is what I pray today and will continue to pray that we are no longer thinking of the garbage but that we allow God to show us a new revelation of His love and power.   So to the question…”What am I?” I answer this…

I am a son of the Alpha and the Omega, the Most High, and the Ruler of the Universe.  I shall not worry because I am simply not in control.  I know that He has my best interest at heart and that He will always work good from the bad.  I hope that if you are having a tough week you will stop and pray and ask our Heavenly Father to comfort you and give you a peace that only He can give.

God Bless ~ Tyler
