Change

To be or not to be.
God provides us with my doors. Some open and some closed. That illistration shows us that God gives us oppertunities and sometimes it isnt met to be in his plan, so he closes that door.
In my families life, some doors have been opening, but then not too soon after closing, one is opened right now, and obviously I would like it to stay open, but I keep fighting with my flesh. It doesnt matter if I want the door open, it only matters if God wants to keep the door open!
God is teaching me how to be patient and trusting and relying and depending on him!
So far, its been an adventure. My flesh was furious at first. ( along with upset, angry, hurt, shocked ect.) But after a few days of prayer and bible reading, I began to start getting happy and rejoicing. Because when God is intentionally opening doors, you know that change is going to come.
Its so awesome to know that the God of this universe is opening the doors, and closing the ones that should be closed, because he cares about ME and my family!! Me, a speck on this Earth. Yet he cares so much about me and my life that he goes out of his way to make doors open.
Whoever is reading this, I serve a mighty God. You may be saved and have that close personal relationship with him like I do, but you may not. You may be a lost sinner and have no hope on this Earth. Let me tell you, with God, you cant help but have hope, even in troubling times!!
Living for God is so much greater than ANYTHING this world can offer you!
Living a sinful, pleasure filled life isnt worth spending forever burning in Hell.
Spend each moment of your life living for God and doing His will, because eternity in Heaven will be so worth it!
And why wouldnt you want to praise the one who created Earth? Who created everything so delicately and carefully. He is so wonderfully perfect, you cant help but praise and love him!
Just a little bit of my thoughts and encouragement of the day.
