Week 73: The Everlasting Arms

                            

                                   THE Everlasting Arms

                                                     God is faithful… I Corinthians 1:9

              

         

         Are you tensed, stressed, or just burnt out? Do you feel nervous and rigidity like you are falling apart? Sometimes I feel like a car that’s running without oil: metal grinding against metal.

         Those are the times when God’s Everlasting Arms are there to draw us closer to Him. The Warmth of His LOVE melts the arctic pains of life. There’s not a pit so deep that His Arms can’t reach. There’s not a trial so tough that His Arms can’t break. There’s not a sting that His Arms can’t soothe. Nothing can snatch us out of THE Everlasting Arms. God’s Arms are always there to hold us.

       With all the distractions we face throughout the day, we might forget that God is there. But, He can never forget about us. He has us engraved on the palms of His Hands. We are before Him always (Isaiah 49:16). God’s faithfulness is there to assist and comfort. He knows about the complicated details of what we are going through. He knows we get tired, bewildered, and in trouble.

         When problems hit, we can cozy up and draw from God’s Perfect Wisdom and Unconditional Love. He will carry us in His bosom, (Isaiah 40:11). All we have to do is let go and collapse in Him. He’s got everything under control. People who don’t know God only have arms of flesh comforting them. If the burden gets too heavy, who knows, arms of flesh might drop them. But, those in Christ have the Arms of God supporting them. Arms that will carry them and their burdens (Psalm 55:22).

         Are you tired? Cuddle up in The Everlasting Arms!

Week 72: The Impossibility Specialist

                             The Impossibility Specialist

                     …be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. Matthew 9:22

• There’s no hope. . .

• Nothing is working. . .

• Just give up!

            If you have a chronic condition, you would probably go to a specialist. Someone who has extensively studied the latest correctional methods specific to your area of concern. But, if you need the IMPOSSIBLE done that extends far beyond the intellect of man, then you should seek the One Who specializes in Impossibilities—God.

         Do we block miracles because of unbelief? How can God show this world all that He can do if we keep blocking His hand with doubt? God needs to shine His glory through us. However, as soon as the plot thickens, as soon as the plot goes zigzag, as soon as the plot is set up perfectly for the miraculous; many times we jump scared and lose faith.

          God is the One Who created the heavens and earth, parted the Red Sea, made water flow from a rock, made a donkey talk, clothed Himself in human flesh, turned water into wine, raised the dead, cast out demons, died on a cross, yet He lives. Talk about impossibilities—Whew!

          Whatever, unbearable, horrifying problem we might face, God is the Specialist. Whether it’s our health, our children, our finances, etc., He Has Already Handled It! All we have to do is make sure we do our part by obeying His Word (II Chronicles 7:14-15) and stay in faith. Now take comfort in knowing:

                        You have Taken it to the Impossibility Specialist!
