Just thinking this a.m. about not blogging on Sunday....smile
Some
years ago I decided I would pay attention (and the Lord was pleased
that I was finally trying to pay attention) and really relax on Sunday, and do no housework, no mail, no laundry....those were all easy! But we have always fixed a big dinner for Sunday...so
no more of that, we chose to go out to lunch. That was easy too.
However, what about those you are making work by fixing ...your lunch
etc....well now that is another matter...smile again!
Now
I am doing a blog today, and my Producer, has a different take on what
is the Sabbath.......so who am I hurting or helping here? We are not
going to get into a big theological question here, because I am not good
at that....but I do think our Heavenly Father has a plan and lots of
logic for everything He does, and askes us to do. But we aren't going
there either...........By the way, my Producer is my Precious Niece.
Allison is my producer, mentor helper, advisor, and a host of other
things....(now I have many Precious Nieces, Kids, Grand Kids, Great Grands......and they KNOW I DO need their help big time.)
God
has a good sense of humor...ever notice? He made us didn't
He?.......So it is o.k. to have fun and enjoy the life He has given
you. No one has more fun than I do. Well maybe, but I love living and
life itself .
Smile and the world smiles with you...cry...and
you get a red nose! (in case you wondered...that isn't a scripture)
The joy of the Lord is my strength! He said He would give us joy
unspeakable and full of glory. Now I know that joy and humor are two
different things, but they both come form God.
Thinking
about God and what He has given us, I am reminded just about every time
I read the Scriptures, it mentions His breath.
He breathed out when
He SPOKE the world into existence....that is totally amazing.
He speaks
to our hearts with a still small voice.............
then I read where
His voice roared............and I definitely do NOT want be on the
receiving end of His roar!
He is gentle, He is awesome, He is THE GREAT
I AM!! Why don't we trust Him with our very lives? (We know
soooooooooooo much and think we can do it all better???)
Greg, do you know how much fun I am having?? If it wasn't for God, we would not have made it thru this past year!
I
am trusting His still small voice (which is past finding out) that
Mr. McGreggor 'will make it!' God whispered that to me one of my very
low days last year ..............and I am believing it! (well, He
didn't call you Mr. Mcgreggor, but He knows your name!)
Isa. 43 sez,
I have redeemed you, I have called you by YOUR name, Greg Toft, and
when you pass thru the waters they shall not overflow you, and when you
walk
thru the fire, you will not be burned.
Those are His words, they are
His breath flowing out to you.............and everyone!!! What an
amazing God we serve. So get back to your office and show the world
what God has placed in your heart.............the dreams He wired you
with....smile.....go create something that will turn heads and hearts
toward Jesus.
See you here, there, or in the air. Hang on!
(For Cray-- "See you in the morning!")
