How GREAT is our God??

How amazing, understanding, patient, and enduring is our God?? That even when our doubts and fears draw us away from Him, He still sticks around to pick us up when we fall. Can such unconditional love ever possibly be understood or even explained??

"Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea." Micah 7:18&19

Every pray we have ever prayed God hears and He remembers them. God's heart isn't like our heart. It doesn't break and then with time; somehow heal itself. God's mind isn't like ours. He doesn't crumble, He doesn't fail, He doesn't forget.
Our minds, our hearts, our bodies have away of repairing themselves and this is exactly how God created us to be.
As humans we forget so easily and in time we forgive. Because it is in our nature to move on; to adapt, to live.

Thank You, Jesus for being exactly who You are.

Attitude

"People may hear your words, but they feel your attitude."
John C. Maxwell

People today are ruled by their feelings. If they feel Angry, Betrayed, or in Love; how they are feeling at that moment when crisis or tragedy comes their way is how they are going to react to the situation.
Step back and think: How are you reacting to everyday situations when your boss is on your back or you have had your feelings hurt by someone you care about (because that is the worst kind of hurt)?? Are you 'killing the messanger'?? Are taking your 'feelings' out on a situation that really doesn't matter??


Attitude. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and I am irritated before I even roll out of bed. I have recognized the signs, so before I ruin my whole day by having a 'bad attitude' I stop and think. What is wrong with me?? What happened that gave be this 'bad attitude'??
My dad calls me the 'Queen of Attitude', and when I am not in the mood for his...helpful advice, I argue. According to my Dad (& this makes complete sense) denying you have an attitude means you do indeed have an attitude.

at·ti·tude
noun
1.manner, dispositionfeeling, position, etc., with regard to a person or thing; 
tendency or orientation,especially of the mind:

"A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results.'"
Wade Boggs 

Your attitude can and will define you. So it is up to you, 
Is it is going to be a bad day or a good day??

Impossible not to

A friend text me late last night,
We talked about nothing at all
then out of no where he asked if I missed him, 
he laughed it off like it really didn't matter
but all I could say, 
Was I could I not??

You're Impossible not to miss
How could I not??
You're in my thoughts,
You're in my prayers. 
I have handed you over to God so many times
Knowing He won't let you go even when I give up hope

You have been gone so long...
 & its not just the distance. 
You have been searching for something to fill the emptiness inside you. 
When will you realize that you found that long ago??
All theses years he has just been running from what he already knows.


Romans 14:11 'For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.'
