911....HELP ME JESUS

I have a question....

Has anyone ever been at a place in their life, where they did not know how to not be human and did not know how not to believe at the same time?

We live in an imperfect world that expects perfection especially from Christians. Actually, even we Christians expect each other to be perfect. I don't know how to fill those shoes. Jesus is the perfect one, not me!!

I don't want to be a fence straddler but I haven't gone far enough to not be human and I have gone to far to stop believing.

It feels so much of the time, when I walk out my door, I'm walking head on into fiery darts. We have armor for those darts (Eph.6:11-18) so they can't kill us but they can sting pretty bad.

As I was praying this morning, I heard in my spirit.....

People are not the enemy..Satan is...and...people are not perfect..I AM

GOD'S WORD IS TRUTH...ALWAYS HAS BEEN...ALWAYS WILL BE
STAY STAY STAY IN THE WORD..BELIEVE BELIEVE BELIEVE THE WORD..STAND STAND STAND ON THE WORD

Sorry to dump this on everyone this morning but it helps me to write. Thanks for listening. :)

THANK YOU FATHER..THANK YOU JESUS..THANK YOU HOLY SPIRIT FOR NEVER LEAVING US OR FORSAKING US.

Jeremiah 29:11 - "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." (amp.)["to give you hope in your final outcome."]

Our final outcome will be as the song "I Can Only Imagine" says..."will I stand in Your presence or to my knees will I fall, will I dance for You Jesus or in awe of You be still, will I sing hallelujah or will I be able to speak at all"

One thing, I know this is where we see "PERFECTION"..in the "SON OF GOD", "OUR LORD AND SAVIOR"

Praise you Jesus and thank you for Your Grace and Mercy

    Hello sister times seemed to be getting tougher and tougher and this battle seems to be getting more intense day by day .I feel as for me most of this battle is within myself but I feel that our loving Father is saying to me the words penned in psalms 46:10. It seems like maybe they will bring some comfort to you as well.
    I love you

    Psalm 46:10 amp.

    "Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth!

    I love you too, Mike

    I love Jeremiah 29:11. Thanks for being transparent. Look to people and we will be disappointed, Look to Jesus and never be disappointed!

    Connie,
    The phrase you wrote above should be coined.
    " I don't want to be a fence straddler, but I haven't gone far enough to not be human, and I have gone to far to stop believing ".
    That is beautiful. You know that "human" part of us is the part our wonderful God is busy about removing from us. Remember this, in ourself we will always be a fence straddler. But we have representation in us that never straddles the fence. It's the representation,(JESUS), that provides the perfectness needed to stand in front of our Father. In Jesus none of us are fence straddlers. In ourself we are always a fence straddler. Thank you Jesus!!!

    Love you,
    Stan

BELIEVING OR HOPING???

Hello God..... I need to ask You something. Why is so hard for us here on earth? Jesus went through much more than we can ever imagine and never lost His focus. We can be moving along real good and then something happens and immediately our focus goes straight to what ever that something is. God, You know, my brother is going to say the "f" word [flesh]. If flesh is sooo bad why did You put us in it to start with? God, I just want to live in Your Word not my flesh. God, You know how bad things are...do You like being given the credit of being in control? If I were You, I wouldn't want anyone to think I was in control of this mess but then I'm not You. I only see the mess, You see the finished work. Psalm 91 says that 1000 will fall at my side and 10,000 at my right hand but no evil will come near my dwelling. My dwelling is in Your secret place and I am abiding under Your shadow. I don't have to fear anything. Ok, if I really believe that, why did I panic ...

Amazing Grace (My Chains are Gone) - Chris Tomlin (with lyrics)

I wanted to share this song...I'm sure most of you have heard it but it is becoming more and more real to me. Seems the name of my blog isn't just a name, it's a prayer. I didn't realize that until this very moment. My heart is being drawn to Jesus and the power of His Word and away from me and the power of my will. The purpose of my will is to except God's Word as absolute truth. This takes me into trusting, believing and surrendering to who God is instead of trying to become who I think God wants me to be. Have you ever read something and as you are reading have an almost out loud thought? Well, I have and this happened as I was reading a comment my brother, Mike, wrote on my last post. He said, "these scriptures make me think that I am not keeping His Word." As I read this, I heard...MY WORD IS KEEPING YOU.... Did you hear that? HIS WORD IS KEEPING US!!!!!! We spend so much time striving to keep God's Word when we could be rest...

SEEKING LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE

Have you ever thought about the one thing you would like to leave behind when you leave this world? Lately, I have. The Holy Spirit has been teaching me in several different areas but they all seem to go together. They all are centered in Love!! 1 John 8&16 say, "God is love". Works and Grace...fear and faith...conditional love and unconditional love. These are very connected. There is works, fear and conditional love on the one hand and then there is Grace, faith and unconditional love on the other. Which one do you choose. Of course, we all would choose Grace, faith and unconditional love. With this being our choice, why do we see so much of the other? God gave us free will and I am beginning to understand why. He doesn't want to force us to love Him. He wants us to want to love Him. In the process of growing, because we have free will, we make many mistakes (we sin much). We call it mistakes but it is sin. The Law was given to show us our sin. Because we are ...
