A quiet calm


Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Alan and I are literally leaving everything up to Christ, as to whatever, His Will, His Purpose, and His Plan may take us. We have done the bittidz best we can; have exhausted our efforts; and now, we are SIMPLY ABIDING in Him; as He IS our Refuge and Strength. Glad too, it is Saturday night and we are appreciatively RESTING in Him. A rather quiet and reflective time; yet somehow, we know He will Help us Overcome all obstacles. He has helped us Overome various challenges before; and we are very thankful for Him 'stepping in'. He HAS a GOOD Plan for each and every one of us!

I keep thinking of the tidbitz comments expressed by Robert Schuller Jr - 'When you are down to nothing, you know He is up to something; that is something to the GOOD for you'. Also, Dr. Charles Stanley shares that when 'God is silent'; not really. He has not abandoned you / us; He is working out a good plan for all of us. So, for those of you who feel discouraged, let down, weary, etc, think of their positive and uplifting thoughts. Also, the Psalms in the Bible are filled with such awesome inspiration! Good on David!

Alan and I are endeavouring to work out various tid 'exit' strategies; however, we shall see what He unfolds for us. We continually 'Praise Him In All Things'; and we just have to keep on trekking and keep a stiff upper bit lip. He says to 'Be of Good Cheer'. Sometimes, that is not easy to do; however, why 'Fret' about tomorrow? Focus on Him, enjoying one day at a time. Rely not upon your own understanding; rather, leave it ALL to Him to Provide Solution. Anticpate that GOOD things will occur for you!

Last week's teachings on 'Hour of Power' and 'Enjoying Everyday Life' were 'NO Coincidence', methinks. Trusting in the Lord, and 'soaring like eagles' from 'Hour of Power'; and Joyce Meyer and John Maxwell (his book, 'Talent is Never Enough') share about genuinely having God in your heart; and then nothing will hold you back. Also, in 'Living Truth', Charles Price shares about the Apostles; how they were led to Jesus. Comparably, how Christ brings you to Him, through people. 'Seek and Ye Shall Find'. It is never too late, if one is 'lost'; makes a greater IMPACT - ie 'what it means to find Jesus and to be found by Him'.

Will keep you posted. As mentioned in yesterday's post, God knows the end from the beginning or has the end in mind for us. Alan and I do not know; however, we will remain 'steadfast', as we are 'waiting' upon Him to show us the way; as 'He IS the Way, the Truth, and the Light'.

Am looking forward to the Vision Channel tomorrow; I know there will be more enlightening ephifanies! Can not believe that another week has flown by.

Here is wishing you all a nice Saturday evening and a wonderful day tomorrow. Love the above photo image of the majestic eagle! Also, hope some of these bittids are tidbits of encouragement to you!

Good Night, Peace, and God Bless.
