#3 Redeeming Time

Life has a beginning and a ending because of Time.

What happens between dawn and dusk makes all the difference. 

Yesterday cannot be changed;

Tomorrow rides on the wings of hope, because there are no promises;

And Today is now, the moment that gives birth to compensation,

When disappointments can be transformed into appointments.

“Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” Ephesians 5 verse 16

“Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.” Colossians 4 verse 5

Yet To Be #20

How easy it is to wish another evil

Seek good and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.  Amos 5 verse 14

How easy it is to wish another evil especially when we are hurt. How about that promotion that should have been yours? How about the paper that you know was worth an “A” but you got a “B”? Did you receive that than you for a work will done? Did not our Lord receive evil for good?  Did He not say forgive them? When are we going to stop saying it is hard, when we know that He is there to help?

Yet To Be #18

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.  Psalm 91 verse 1

Secret place is a personal relationship with God which guarantees full and complete insurance coverage – “He will hide me, safely hide me in the shadow of His hand”. The name of the Lord is a strong tower.

Yet To Be #15

he would supply all our needs

…as having nothing, and yet possessing all things…I will be your God and they shall be my people. 2 Corinthians 6 verse 10 and 16

Jesus told us that he would supply all our needs. We know that “He owns the cattle on a thousand hills”. Jesus is Lord ( Vicissitudes of Life, 2007)

Stress and Life

encouraging words makes him feel good.

Life is a road we must travel

Life is a road. Sometimes the road is rough and as we travel on it, we can get anxious or weighed down by the many bumps and curves.

Anxiety is a natural response to stress which at times can lead to fear and apprehension having a sense of impending danger, panic or doom.

The Bible says, “heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop; but a good word maketh it glad”. Proverbs 12 verse 25

Plainly spoken, “anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but encouraging words makes him feel good”.

Sometimes talking to someone or even saying kind words to others helps to lift the spirit.

We all need to feel good and encouraged as we walk the path of life.

Destressing life = use encouraging words

Yet To Be #8

“ Is not my help in me? And is wisdom driven quite from me? Job 6 verse 13 KJV

We often say that we trust the Lord but when the test of faith comes, we break down.  There is a saying; you never know the strength of tea until it is steeped in hot water. ( Vicissitudes of Life, 2006)
