Often we hear the expression "When life gives you lemons you make lemonade". But what does this expression mean to you? To mean it means refusing to see the negative in every situation life throws at you and choosing to focus on the positive things. It's making the most out of every situation in life and acknowledging the truth that everything happens for a reason. GOD has a plan for all of us. It's up to us to acknowledge that we are in the palm of His hand and He's holding our tomorrows. Therefore we have nothing to fear. When we choose to see all of GOD's blessings in our life, I don't think we would even take a glimpse at the things that don't go according to our plan. Because GOD has a much greater plan for us than we could even begin to imagine. When GOD looks at you, He doesn't see what you are now, He sees you as the great person that you will become through Him. A prime example of this is (the son of Jacob) Joseph's brother's. They sold him into slavery out of jealousy because he was their father's favourite. Little did they know that years later they would bow before that same Joseph which they had sold into slavery. GOD had made the Pharoah put Joseph in charge of all Egypt. GOD's favor was on Joseph. Genesis 37-47. When GOD puts you in a high place, noone can move you from that place. (except GOD of course)
Whatever is happening in your life, believe that GOD's gonna turn it around for your good! Just trust in Him. "All things work together for the good of those who love GOD." Romans 8:28 AMEN.
You Raise Me Up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_TENsSc61M
Click on the link to listen to this song (You raise me up). To me the song reminds me of GOD's provision through all the storms of life. He is faithful to deliver us. He is just and merciful. He pities us as a father pities his children (Psalm 103), He cares for us as a mother would her suckling. He is awesome and kind. No man nor mind can comprehend the love that GOD has for His children. He is sweet and lovely. His mercies never end. They are poured out every day. They are new every morning. Great is His faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:23). I love GOD. I love what He has done for me. I appreciate Him for who He is. He has been so good to me. His love for me does not depend on how I treat Him. Even though I let Him down He still cares for me. His love for me and you is unconditional. It does not vary like shadows or wind. James 1:17. He is not like a human being who changes their mind every 5 minutes. His thoughts are not our thoughts neither are His ways our ways. Isaiah 55:8. He keeps His promises. Hebrews 11:11. He does not lie. He loves us and that is it. He has no alterior motive. Although we are completely unworthy, totally undeserving of His love, He loves us anyway. Every good and perfect gift comes from Him. James 1:17
