“Learning Through Ups An Downs”

Father God, let this message touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
As I grew up and went to school all the way to freshman in High School. I had a hard time reading. I even went to Summer School each year. I ended it mostly learning hands on and I guess you’d say I learned the hard way. {“When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.” Psalms 56:3} If you turn to God, he will comfort your fears. He is by your side always and ready to take on the very things that frighten you. So, when I got into Freshman year, and I needed eyeglasses. Who knew? Well, they had machines where you could speed read. How awesome but hard it was. {“God promises to make something good out of the storms that bring devastation to your life.” Romans 8:28} God knows the devastation you are facing, and he is right there waiting to lift you back up from it. He will always make something beautiful arise out of a hard situation. See I did know how to read but I was far sighted which made it hard for me to read close up. So, I could read. But those speed reading machines I had to learn slow at first. The more I did this speed reading. The better I could read a lot better. I loved to read after all this. I really love to read and learn. It has become my everything in all I do. Then You Tube came along. Thank God because I have had to learn a lot about technology. Besides taken some classes for computers etc. Learning hands on has always been my strongest suits.
I admit life was tuff before the eyeglasses and the speed-reading machine. Get knocked down. Get back up again and keep on moving forward. There is no greater time to grow in an intimate knowledge of God than when you are going through hard times. {“For when I am weak, then I am strong.” 2 Corinthians 12:10} God is a miracle worker! He has the power to turn things around, no matter the situation. “Sometimes the best thing that can be done is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess. Just breathe and have faith that everything will work out for the best.” “God gave us this life because he knew we were strong enough to live it.”
Focusing on faith and the word of God to encourage. It’s hard to make it through life whenever dealing with a difficult situation. If we remember God’s promises and know in our heart, God is near and listening always. He is listening! Sometimes we just need a reminder.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You for others who can comprehend the needs of others. I can be so ingrained in my own thinking that sometimes I doubt Your Word. I tend sometimes to doubt Your promises and love. Your Word gives me all the affirmation of this reality I will ever need. Your Word, Promises, faithfulness and love stretches over time and space. I thank You and praise You for Your gift of Your promises and Word that is true. I thank You and praise You for the grace of Your faith. I thank You and praise You for that Your love and word is being fixed firmly in my heart day after day. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
