As Christians there should be something distinct about us, that others would notice and want to know what it is we have. This does not mean we should look down on others or act like we are better than anyone else simply because God has chosen to give us the gift of salvation.
There is no doubt that the Lord is all-powerful. His power is shown and displayed in our lives daily. The Lord has and continues to show Himself strong and mighty in all situations in our lives.
We are going to have some battles that we are going to have to fight. We are also going to fight some battles that are not ours to fight, but will find ourselves fighting them. Then there are some battles that we will want to fight, but we will not be able to fight, because they are not our battles.
Every day God blesses us in a variety of ways and many of them we can take for granted. There are days when all will go right and we can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and then there are those days when everything is bleak, dark, and there is no light anywhere.
Through the many challenges and ups and downs in life, God has been good to us, and despite all that we have faced we have had some great success in life. We know that it was not ourselves who made the way or opened the door, but we know that it was God; and if it had not been for Him, we could not have been where we are right now.
There is something so powerful about having a great prayer life. It is extremely encouraging knowing that we can always go to God in prayer and know that He will answer our prayers. When we do not know what else to do, we should know that we can always pray.
We place our trust in many things that we may not even realize that we put our trust in. Every time we sit in our favorite chair, we are trusting that it is sturdy enough to hold us one more time. A carpenter who is working on a project trust that their measurements are right and that the tools that he is using are going to be able to get the job done.
There are many occasions that has brought us joy as we experienced them. We have experienced the birth of babies, weddings, and gatherings with family and friends that are memorable and joyful.
Every day The Lord gives us is a blessing. There is no day that we have had that was ever promised to us, and any day that we are able to see and experience are only granted by The Lord’s grace and mercy. Every day should begin with prayer and thanksgiving to The Lord for all His blessings towards us.
