Worse than the Curse

To the woman He said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; in pain you shall bring forth children; your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”
Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’: “Cursed is the ground for your sake; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life. Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for dust you are, and to dust you shall return.” Gen 3:16-19 Continue reading

Patience in the Overwhelming!

“If He withholds the waters, they dry up; If He sends them out, they overwhelm the earth.”‭‭Job‬ ‭12:15‬ 

This has been an overwhelming week and I haven’t had my mind on doing a morning devo!
It’s fundraiser time at work and I’m in charge of setting up the equipment. Tables, chairs, computers, phones, network wiring, electrical wiring, relays for flashing lights, flat screen TV’s, and cameras are all used. Plus I create all of the radio spots that are used. 
I’ve spent the last two weeks trying to prepare for 36 hours of fundraising. 

It’s been overwhelming, but I’ve learned not to do anything stupid while being surrounded by such a great amount of work. 
Patience and steadily moving forward one step at a time is key. 

The scripture says If God sends a lot of rain it overwhelms the earth.
When that happens you can’t do anything stupid like driving through water that’s glowing over the road. Or driving 70 mph in a hard downpour. 

Patience and steadily moving one step at a time is key. 

Don’t let life overwhelm you. Slow down. Look around. Enjoy the view. Then move forward a step at a time. 

So ends the debate!

Matt 7:21-23 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ Continue reading
