Do you really?

Trust God?

IN the letter to the Corinthians Paul says,

..."for we are a people who live by trust, not by what we see." 

(2 Corinthians 5:7 Complete Jewish Translation)

These are surely perilous times we live in.

Anyone who says otherwise is deceiving you, and surly is deceived himself.

If you take the scripture in context, read what Paul is saying, he is encouraging even exhorting us to believe, to have faith to take our faith to a deeper level. To really TRUST God. 

When everything in this world, when everything in OUR world, seems to be collapsing around us and not going according to plan.

"We know that when the tent which houses us here on earth is torn down...."

Paul is talking about our very lives. Our physical bodies.

He goes on to encourage us by saying,

"We have a permanent building from God, a building not made by human hands, to house us in heaven."

Paul continues under the powerful influence of the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) to describe in such detail the suffering of the delicate human existence of a servant of God (us as believers) and then the powerful resurrection reward of the faithful child of God. Those who walk by faith, trusting in God's promises, not being moved by their circumstances.

Something  easily obtained?

I would say not.

But, think about it. Seriously, just for a second, think about it.

Should it be?

Even Paul, who was Saul, all the suffering that he went through in his life, as a believer says it  won't be an easy life for us. However, Paul, after everything he endured in his physical body, (the multiple stonings, beatings, starvings, imprisonments, over and over again. Even almost to death, where unto Paul desired even so himself to die) 

Still in the midst of all this, Paul reaches out to encourage those of us who are faithful to walk by faith and not just by what we can see. Letting us know God has not forgotten us and will reward us greatly!

 Paul tells us in his letter to the Romans that, "I do not believe that the sufferings that we go through now are even worth comparing with the Glory that is revealed to us in the future." 

(Romans 8:18 Complete Jewish Translation)

Unfathomable 

I don't know about YOU but I am greatly encouraged by this!

 

The Lord has NOT forgotten YOU!

The LORD makes ALL things NEW.

Remain faithful and remember,

"If God be for you who can be against you?"

Be blessed!

Love ~ JoY and Shalom in the beautiful, awesome, mighty name of our Messiah Yeshua!

Hello! I'm back! :)

                                                          Hi!

I realize it has been a very long while since I have been on here.

So I thought I would take a moment to pop on and say hello.

As I am sure all of you are more than aware, life has been crazy for just about everyone on the planet for quite some time now.

I'd say for about a year before Rona struck the Lord started shaking things up in my personal life a bit.

(Who am I kidding, if you have read my blog at all the Lord is always shaking things up in my life 😁)

This time however,  it's ALL GOOD!

Isn't it awesome when the Lord answer's prayer?

No. seriously.

The Lord has been answering some 

many, many years of tearful prayers.  

So my time has been consumed 

with the manifestation of just that! 

Answered prayer!

Well I am going to do my best to start sharing online again.

I realize there are many people out there who can not meet in person or just enjoy reading uplifting blogs 

without a ton of politics and ads.

There is no getting around the fact that times are changing.

They can be be overwhelming for sure.

However,

It is no surprise to the Lord God our creator, 

that we would be here,

You and I, at this time and day.

He knew that when He created us - For such a time as this.

So let us look to Him.

 Let Him be our guide and comfort.

Let Him hide us under the shadow of His wings.

Let's give the Lord our life once again.

All of who we are.

Let Him be our refuge and strength.

He is waiting to give us peace where we have fear.

Love you all!

Thank you so much for stopping by! May our good and gracious,

most beautiful Messiah bless you today with His everlasting peace.

May Abba surround you with His love and may the Holy Spirit guide and direct your foot steps!

Shalom out,

God's Own ~ AmyColleen

For the one who belongs the Lord

Psalm 46

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we are unafraid, even if the earth gives way, even if the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea, even if its waters rage and foam, and mountains shake at its turbulence.

 (Selah) 

There is a river whose streams gladden the city of God, the holy habitation of ‘Elyon — God is in the city. It will not be moved — when daybreak comes, God will help it. Nations were in turmoil, kingdoms were moved; his voice thundered forth, and the earth melted away. 

Adonai-Tzva’ot is with us, our fortress, the God of Ya‘akov. (Selah) Come and see the works of Adonai, the astounding deeds he has done on the earth. To the ends of the earth he makes wars cease — he breaks the bow, snaps the spear, burns the shields in the fire. “Desist, and learn that I am God, supreme over the nations, supreme over the earth.” 

Adonai-Tzva’ot is with us, our fortress, the God of Ya‘akov"
