In this walk with GOD I have learned, and I am still learning, - TopicsExpress



          

In this walk with GOD I have learned, and I am still learning, never to ask GOD why? How, and what, yes but never why? Thats because, and this is for me, and only me, you all can do as you wish?But the answer is, ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR THE GOOD OF THOSE WHO LOVE THE LORD AND ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE (Rom8:28). Receiving Yourself in the Fires of Sorrow … what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour. ‘Father, glorify Your name’ (John 12:27–28). As a saint of God, my attitude toward sorrow and difficulty should not be to ask that they be prevented, but to ask that God protect me so that I may remain what He created me to be, in spite of all my fires of sorrow. Our Lord received Himself, accepting His position and realizing His purpose, in the midst of the fire of sorrow. He was saved not from the hour, but out of the hour. We say that there ought to be no sorrow, but there is sorrow, and we have to accept and receive ourselves in its fires. If we try to evade sorrow, refusing to deal with it, we are foolish. Sorrow is one of the biggest facts in life, and there is no use in saying it should not be. Sin, sorrow, and suffering are, and it is not for us to say that God has made a mistake in allowing them. Sorrow removes a great deal of a person’s shallowness, but it does not always make that person better. Suffering either gives me to myself or it destroys me. You cannot find or receive yourself through success, because you lose your head over pride. And you cannot receive yourself through the monotony of your daily life, because you give in to complaining. The only way to find yourself is in the fires of sorrow. Why it should be this way is immaterial. The fact is that it is true in the Scriptures and in human experience. You can always recognize who has been through the fires of sorrow and received himself, and you know that you can go to him in your moment of trouble and find that he has plenty of time for you. But if a person has not been through the fires of sorrow, he is apt to be contemptuous, having no respect or time for you, only turning you away. If you will receive yourself in the fires of sorrow, God will make you nourishment for other people. Dont get me wrong I not saying its easy! what I am saying is THREW CHRIST I can do all things threw HIM that strenghtens me,(Phil4:13) Amen and (1Thess5:18) In ALL THINGS GIVE THANKS! Thats good and bad.It is always in HIS POWER not mine other wise then, I wouldnt NEED A SAVIOR. Thank YOU JESUS....Your brother in CHRIST moe.
