God Is Headlining The Show

I haven't been blogging lately. So many things have been going on with me, as well as around me . At times, situations can become overwhelming--so overwhelming, in fact that we get too wrapped up in the moment or moments. But, I thank God for Jesus...

Situations may arise in our lives, be it good or not-so-good, however, God is always in the midst. He carries us through the torments of life. I'm grateful for His unwavering, undying LOVE for me. God loves us more than man ever could. His love allowed Him to send His only begotten son in order to save this sin sick world. Imagine what the world would be like if Jesus had not gone to Calvary.... It's a mess now, but if it weren't for Jesus staying on the cross, this place where we live would be total chaos, unimaginable.

In knowing this, why is it that some people still hate their fellow man, their brother or sister? There is so much backbiting, lying, hypocrisy, and just pure evil going on today. Hate is prevalent in our homes, on our jobs, and places of worship. I can't believe that people would actually enter into the Lord's house with so much animosity in their hearts. Where is the LOVE? Isn't loving your neighbor the greatest commandment?

If we claim to be Christians, but aren't loving our brothers and sisters, what does that say about us? Are we really who we say we are? Or, are we like the Pharisses?

People have become so "cut-throat", running around thinking themselves better than the next. They feel that they're above the very ones who may have to give them a cold drink later on.. God made us all the same. If we are to get into those pearly gates, we must all follow the same guide--JESUS. There's no way around it. Treating people like outcasts, trodding on their feelings, and being downright mean is not the way of the Lord. That's the enemy's way. Being the victim of such treatment sometimes bothers me, but then I think about what Jesus went through. I remember that the Lord promises to never leave me nor forsake me.

Just this morning, I was listening to Kiera Sheard's CD and received a revelation. In one of her songs, she says God is headlining the show, what a WORD.... The Lord reminded me through lyrics that people can do whatever they choose to do. They can go around thinking that they're really doing something big when completing tasks for the enemy. They may be on top now, but GOD IS HEADLINING THE SHOW...

  2. Really a good word about the pharisees problem. I really have bee so lead about this in the church lately. Still God at one point showed me even with all their faults they are still the salt and light of the earth.. even if arrogant at time. None are righteous.. no not one. Our rages of filthy, everyone the bible says. It there we need to deal with other people and.. espeically Christians if wr are going to empower them to the light and love.. really.. What a task. It looks so over whelming to me and yet I know that others have managed it..or we wouldn't have ministers that Christ has so elevated because they are faithful even by the people who should be the friendlyest..the church..I think I have gotten to a new level of thinking about this.. Work the problem with God.. don't complain about it and boy have I been complaining..I do think that it's important that we share this struggle together though and that is why I responded because it sound like you are truely looking to resolve something here for yourself. We have to become experts at communication and speak in gentelness, love a patience when others are back byteing and so forth...Your words have the sound of His love..

  3. As I read your post today the Holy Spirit moved my heart to remember the letter written to the
    Philippian church in the New Testament.
    Phil 2:1-8.
    The Spirit grieves in your heart over what we see in the Church today.Keep your direction, the Lord is truly moving in your life.Blessings in the Lord Jesus Christ to a beautiful woman in the Lord
