It's been a long time since I've blogged.
Been keeping a lot of things inside myself and praying wholeheartedly to the Lord about a lot of situations that have entered my life. So, so many things that I am learning since the last blog.
The old saying goes: The grass is always greener on the other side. I beg the differ. There is no green on the other side. In this world, one can be fooled and what may glitter is not always gold. Trust me.
Satan presents himself boldly into your life; always painting a picture that you want to see. The glory of it all is that God exposes Satan's tricks and it is never too late to close shop in hell and join the living just waiting for you in some form of heaven that you can hold onto while you journey here on this earth.
What is quickly gotten into is not always easy to get out of. It takes prayer, a plan from God, and patience in everything. How Wonderful Is Thy Name . . . Jesus my Savior, my Redeemer, my Everything.
The most important part is to stay focus. Never loose hope and never give up in what you believe. I believe in the Lord . . . The Great I AM! That is all that one can do when the storms of life brew heavy in the southern, northern, western, and eastern sides in your life. Stay Positive and stay prayerful. I promise you that in doing that . . . . it brings about a change and a peace to your life. One that only God can give to you:

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
I am forever grateful of this Psalms. Each word means so much. I was expressing to my neighbor on the other day that we are lost without God. We make such a mess of things when we don't consult with Him about any and every detail of our lives. I compared us to sheep. The sheep runs here and there and it takes the Shepherd to direct us back into the fold. When sheep wonder it sets itself up to be slaughtered by any suspected prey waiting for a tasty meal, but the Shepard protects the sheep. He keeps an eye out for the prey that seeks a tasty meal and he directs the sheep out of harms way. Know this . . . We have free will to roam and in doing that we do become vulnerable to the prey.
That is what happened to me. I strayed away on my own, leaving the protection of the Shepherd and ran into a roaring lion that is seeking to devour me. OH BUT I KNOW A MAN who says come back to my protection, admit your mistakes to me, and I will see you through!
My friends . . . I bow my head in humility. I have admitted my mistakes, I have ran back to the Shepherd quickly, and I wait patiently on MY GOD to see me through!
