Subject: When the tears fall.....Newsboys
Isaiah 58:11, "The Lord will guide you always: He will satisfy your needs...and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail."
This scripture is a desire of my heart, but how do I get it? I spend time with my best Friend. I want be well watered with Godly wisdom so I can overflow and encourage others who are loosing hope, or hurting and searching for answers. There are things that God has brought me through, and things I know are coming that He will bring me through. He is the same God in every storm I go through.
Matthew 22: 37 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind." This scripture has more and more deep meaning to me the more I read and meditate on it. Don't wait to spend time with God just "when the tears fall." The soul demands fellowship with God at all times, good and bad. Unless you feed the soul, and exercise it daily in quietness with God, it becomes depressed, confused and restless. Many people turn to alcohol to try and calm down and drown out the reality of life. Some turn to new sex experiences, drugs, anything that satisfies their deep longings of their soul. Nothing but God can completely satisfy, because the soul is made for God. It will always be restless and in some kind of torment without Him.
Lessons during loss, trauma, and disappointments, are never easy. They are uncomfortable, and they can be very devastating. This is when the reality of what we are really made of comes out. Especially your relationship with God. Do we love and worship Him only when times are good?
We need to face the reality that life is going to throw us many curve balls. Loving and going deeper with God is a choice. I choose to continue to go deeper with Him. To allow these curves to become a testimony for Him, and to help others who are going through heart crushing times. He will take my life and make it a masterpiece for His glory,
Ephesians 5: 19-20.
