Is your life a country song?

When there sees too be no hope, and your life feels heavy.
Like an old country song.
You know car broke down, lost your job, your health is failing,
doubt, confusion and it all hits at one time. No matter how hard we try to get things to together, sometimes life seems like its falling apart.

It is important to remember that God has everything under control.
This is the time to seek God. In every situation we should seek GOD. Going to him in Prayer and Giving Him thanks, for this is the will of God. This pleases GOD.

 For the season here on earth is short. The human situations are like a blink of the eye to the Lord. Our eternity is what we should be focusing on.

Prayer
Eternal God, we thank you for everything you do for us. Including this life and all our needs you supply in every situation. We are grateful for the beautiful gift of eternal life, Through your son Jesus Christ. Guide us Lord, so that we might always be able to find things to give you Thanks. Amen.

So let us find strength in Jesus, Keeping our Faith

2 Timothy 4:17

But the Lord stood with me and
strengthened me, so that the message
might be preached fully through me,
and that all the Gentiles might hear.

Also I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.  
And the Lord will deliver me from
every evil work and preserve me
for His heavenly kingdom.
To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!

~~~Reflections~~~
Wherever we go, who ever we happen to meet. We have the assurance that the Lord will equip us with His Word. So that the message might be preached through us. He will stand with us, and equip us. So that  His message will go forth.

His word does not say that we won't have obstacle , In this chapter we can see that Paul was abandoned by Demas. That must have been an obstacle. He had to send for Mark, for Luke was the only one with Paul. You see the Lord placed people in Paul's path, to send for Mark.
 He will deliver us from every evil work. He will preserve us for His Kingdom. For His Glory!

So let us find strength in Jesus, Keeping our Faith. For these things are but a blink of the eye. Our real treasures await us, a crown of righteousness, on judgement day.

Prayer~~
Thank you God for giving us the strength to stand even when circumstances seem impossible. Thank you Lord for being strong in my life. We can never make it without You. Lord, We invite you into every situation in our lives. Your reassurance brings such peace to us. To God be the glory.
