A Season of Giants

Ecclesiastes 3: 1 
To Every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:


I had to battle a few "giants" recently; sometimes past hurts stay with us, for a very long time, until we release them to God; we may have to dress for battle and go through many emotions, in order to let go and come out victorious. The 'season' will change and we will, too.

My particular situation was brought on by myself - no one else. Losing connections with those who play a huge, important part in my life has not been an easy thing to deal with. But, God has shown Himself so true, even in the midst of my anger, hurt, grief, denial, and acceptance, of the entire situation. Once I moved thru all of the emotions, I finally said, "Thank you, Lord, for not leaving me".

He is just waiting for us to move closer to Him, and sometimes that move is extremely hard, but well worth it, in the end. But, like His Word says, "ALL THINGS work together for good to them that love Him and are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28) and He is standing by with open arms.

My battle, not only got alot out of my system, but allowed me to sit at Jesus' feet, and cry! I have to say, at one point, I couldn't even pray, I just cried. But, again, this is just another wonderful thing about our Lord and Savior -He knows our heart even when we don't know what words to say. So, never give up, just pour out your heart (and your tears), for He cares for you more than you can imagine.

I give God all the Glory and Honor, each and every day, that He gives me the opportunity to fellowship with Him. Seasons come and Seasons go - but God's love will last forever!

This Season of Facing My Giants - God provided the "sling and the stone"!
(1 Samuel 17)

Philippians 4:13  "I can do ALL things through Christ which strengthens me"

Who's For You?

Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (KJV)

Today, as I sat and thought about my circumstances, I repeated to myself, "God is with me - it doesn't matter who comes against me", and I truly believe that.

When things don't seem to be going our way, we need to remember, God is on our side. He loves us and cares for us. I read a sign today, "sometimes God delays us where we are, because He knows there is a storm, where we are headed" ..... Only He knows what lies ahead; and He cares more than anyone. We all know that the enemy is "lurking about to devour us", but if we trust and believe that God is working for us, we won't have to worry about the outcome. God knows what's best for us!

Romans 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (KJV)

So, when the enemy comes trying to devour you or me and take our joy......Remember, NOTHING shall separate us from the love of God......we may slip, fall, or walk out of God's Will - but He is always waiting on us to return. So, let's not let the enemy make us think God is finished with us.....He's not!!!

Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. (KJV)

Loving Him......And happy knowing, He loves me......
