Striving To Be "Christ-Like"!

Go tell that fox... “At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus and said to him, “Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill you.” He replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘I will drive out demons and heal people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.” Luke 13:31-32  Everyone faces discouragement and disappointments, 2020 "the covid 19 pandemic" seemed to be a big container of all that. You wake up with your plan for the day of no discouragement, fear, etc... but just along the way something happens to distort that plan.  Fear will grip you and discouragement messes up your goals for the day. Then the enemy (that fox) lies to and distracts you... you begin to feel frustrated and think you are useless, and the situation feels hopeless... but God! But the Lord says... from now on, go and tell that fox that fear is a liar, tell that fox... I am healed, I am worthy, I am saved, etc. That fox is the power of evil; the evil force that works for your do...

"For I am the LORD, your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, do not fear; I will help you." (Isaiah 41:13) In one way or another, at some point, we're all suffering through trials of every kind. I pray that you will take to heart the message that the love of Christ will never fail you. Whatever struggle you are facing in your life, let the truth be your guide. There is nothing to stop the purpose for which God created you. Your days were numbered and a plan was made for you long before you were born. There is always hope in every battle, because the power of God is with you to the end. When you are feeling overwhelmed and weary, remember that someone is praying for you. In God's perfect will, way, and on His watch, I know that all things are being worked out for the good!

My heart is heavy for more than one reason, and as I am praying in the midnight hour over several needs, the Lord so graciously, in His divine and perfect timing allowed me to hear this song. It soothed my soul and dried my tears. God cares for us. God cares for you. God will carry you through it all. The hurt, He can turn to joy. The questions, He can provide the answers. The trials, He can transform to triumphs. The unexpected in life, He can show Himself mighty. The discouragement, He can rollover to encouragement. The weakness you experience, He can be your strength. The unsettling times, He can be your peace. ♥️🙌 I pray this song and the words shared are a comfort to you as well. Lord, You're so faithful. Sometimes we just simply need to be reminded. Lyrics - "He Will Carry You": There is no problem too big God cannot solve it. There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it. There is no storm too dark God cannot calm it. There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe...
