The Greatest Good Suffering can do For

The greatest good suffering can do for me is to increase my capacity for God.
Joni Eareckson Tada

Are Not Burdensome.

Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome. For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God 1 John 5:3-5 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

We are in a war in the west from the barbarians called liberals, social justice, queer rights and black lives matter and other like satanic matter minded cults.

The only way to victory is to have faith that The Holy Spirit guides us there as we obey His commandments.

And, only those who accept Christ as their savior and King have the gift of The Spirit with in us to lead us to victory.

“When justice is divorced from morality, when rights of individuals are separated from right and wrong, the only definition you have left for justice is the right for every individual to do as he pleases…the end of that road is anarchy and barbarism” . John Piper

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Gibbor Milchamah (Psalms 24:8 The LORD Mighty In Battle ) for blessing us with the best tactician to lead us to victory over the wicked in this world. I praise You in the name of He who defeated satan on the cross, Jesus Christ. Amen

Those Who Know The

Those who know the trials and difficulties of life’s road can enter into the feelings of others who are tired and can provide strength and encouragement for the weak and weary. Frederick A. Tatford

Appreciate His Time as A

“After twenty-eight days of torture, I could remember I had children but not how many. 

I prayed for strength.

During long periods of enforced reflection, it became so much easier to separate the important from the trivial. 

My hunger for spiritual food soon outdid my hunger for steak. 

It took prison to show me how empty life is without God.” Howard Rutledge came to appreciate his time as a POW in Vietnam

The Care Giving Disciple

When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were confused and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Matthew 9:36 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

Jesus see’s our elderly parents who are not quick on the draw anymore and has compassion on them. He sends us who are His disciples to go and care for them.

There are so many times we feel lost and confused, not knowing how to properly care for them.

Most people do not want to hear our problems and have no advice to give us. It is extremely frustrating.

That is why we need to unload our frustrations and anger on Jesus. His shoulders are big enough to take it.

Then when have exhausted ourselves, He gently assures us He loves us, cares for us and offers suggestions on how best to handle the situation.

It often is not easy to obey His instructions but it must be done for our own sanity as well as the best care for our parents.

Name your problems one by one with Jesus. He is in no hurry and wants you to unload on Him. He will not be offended by your anger, frustration and pain. Then, be still and listen to His soft, gentle loving voice as He comforts you, encourages you and heals you. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah

This is not just for those caring for elderly ( most often abusive and ungrateful parents ) but those taking care of disabled wives and husbands, and of course those taking care of handicapped children.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Machsi (Psalms 91:9 The LORD My Refuge)that when the stress and abuse is unbearable when caring for others I can always take refuge in Your loving, caring arms. I praise You in the name of He who comforted so many when He walked amongst them, Jesus Christ. Amen

May you have a grateful heart towards He who has given so much to you. indeovi vas ( may you live with Jesus in Latin ) Seleh- stop and think about it.

The Caregivers Prayer

Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

Whether it be as a parent or whether you are caring for a parent the daily demands are over whelming at times.

That is why we need to take time every day to be alone with Jesus. He will calm our nerves, sooth our bodies and bring peace to our spirits.

Being a care giver may not be the most stressful, abusive and unappreciative thing you have ever done but it is in the top ten. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah

Prayer: Oh thank you Jesus Immeka (Judges 6:12 The LORD Is with You ) for being with me during the times when I am exhausted and feel like I cannot go on. You bless me with Your strength.

Oh thank you for blessing me when You are a calming shelter when the storm of stress because of abusive parents is about to crash upon me and destroy me. You bless me with such Divine peace.

Oh thank you Jesus that because no one wants to hear my cries of stress, suffering and trauma, You are always there to wrap Your soothing, loving, comforting arms around me and let me cry like I have never cried before in Your gentle loving arms.

I praise You in Your magnificent loving name. Amen

May you have a grateful heart towards He who has given so much to you. indeovi vas ( may you live with Jesus in Latin )

Seleh- stop and think about it.

I do Not Know Anyone Who

  “I do not know anyone who goes through life without some wounding of the heart. Sometimes we take a little shower at Calvary rather than let God deeply cut and wash away the hurts with His atoning blood.” — Cindy Jacobs

Circumstances May Appear To

Circumstances may appear to wreck our lives and God’s plans, but God is not helpless among the ruins. Eric Liddell
