Are You Keeping Score?

Quite recently I was a spectator at a track meet for primary and high school athletes. As I waited to enter the venue I saw a young man, he could have been 18 but he had the body of maybe a 10 year old. He was decked out in his track suit and was walking around looking quite serious and focused. He was obviously a special needs child. At no point did I think he was a participant in any of the races. I am now in the stands and watching the races; if my memory serves me correct, the under 20 men's 100 meter dash. And who do I see running his heart out and competing with guys who could quadruple him in stature, the special needs guy from earlier. He ran a dead last, but in that moment, I saw him as a winner. At what point does keeping score matter here? I invite you to read more by clicking below.

Nothing You Do Is 100% You, Remember Him

History has been unkind but he soothes our sorrows. He strengthens us in times of adverse conditions when we remember that He is with us; and all it takes is for us to call on Him.

The Amazing Power Of God

Can I be honest and say I was like a Sarah who laughed at this point. But as I realized later this was God's promise to us and later we would experience His Amazing Power. God increased Robert's, (my husband) clientele and allowed him an increase in his income to pay the rest of the deposit required. We went into that house fully furnished with new furniture and I’m not talking the basics I am talking add ons... paintings, mirrors, lamps, cushions, drapes, rods etc. ... everything that would allow us to have a beautiful home and one that we were extraordinarily pleased about. I get chills every time I think about how God worked it all out for us. In retrospect I also thought about the pains of building he saved us from. There are so many other accounts I could give of the amazing power of God at work in our lives like the time we went to dinner at our church; and in waiting for the hall to be ready we voiced that we should be at a certain restaurant having dinner instead. Before the evening ended we won 2 tickets to go to dinner at a "posh" restaurant. Do you hear me? I am sure as you read this you are reminded of the amazing power of God at work in your life too and that was my aim. Never allow "life" to cause you to forget how amazing God has been to you and how ... read rest? Click below. Leave a comment I want to hear about how amazing He has been in your life....
