You Can't Give Up?

It's now about to go into the month of April, and I have face some challenges thus far this year that could bring about some discomforts, anxiety, and actually make a person want to give up.  I lost my part time job about a month ago.  I took a pastoral position at a church that didn't work out and ended last week.  This week my physician tells me that my blood pressure is a little high, and she wants to put me on medication.  What's going on God?  Some many challenges, obstacles, and difficulties.   Through all these things I can't give up.  I am believing that God is doing something special regardless of the physical challenges that I may be facing.   I am believing the best.  All my life I have chose to believe in the most outlandish things, but today I will say this that God has brought me farther trusting Him than I have ever gotten trusting anyone else or myself.  What's going to happen next I don't know, but I know this that I will follow God without trepidation or fear.  What a year thus far, but God has His own personalized plan for me, the business, and the ministry.  God will see me through, and I am expecting that God will shine His glory through this all.

The Beauty Of Challenges

No one likes challenges, but I am learning to use them to evaluate my Christian walk. My personal challenges has enabled me to see areas of life the needs improvement, and changes that need to be made. This week I have faced some inward battles with self. At times if not careful I can easily get caught up in my "Rights". What I want for myself, and what I am entitled to. A very dangerous place to be. I drifted there this week, and God always has a remarkable way of bringing it to the light which He did through my quiet time. I love it when God reveals something within myself. I say that I love it because I truly want to change. I am afraid if I don't I will become a prisoner of self. Challenges are tough, but very much needed to grow in our walk with Christ. At times I can really sense the urgency of how much I really need Christ. This week as I was taking a closer look at myself I realize I am really small in comprehension, and statue. This really keeps me humble, and blessed to be of service of God. God is doing some remarkable things within the ministry as in June we are marching forward with a new project in DVD Production. We have been blessed, and the more we grow it seems the smaller I get. As I close this blog I must say that I am truly grateful these days for the love, and compassion of God.
