Message Mount

Pastor Rickie Rush, of the Inspiring Body of Christ Church, gave a wonderful message today from 1 Peter 4:12-13. It hit me on all cylinders about how we are anointed, yet may not be ready to lead. Our miracle is through the fire, yet when we make it to the fire, we stop. The devil, (who is a liar, by the way) licks his chops. Just preys on you and waits.

The thing is, to go through the fire, builds our character. Our trust in the Only One that matters grows. Our miracle is just right there--and some of us--well, heck, I'll be honest: ME! may think I got it all covered. I'm in control of it.

Wrong.

That's been proven --again-- here in recent times. Put your trust in the Only One that matters. I should really KNOW this already. He brought me through, not me. No matter how much I thought I was the strong one. I looked unto the hills from where my strength really comes (that's Psalms 121).

In the meantime, the sun still shines on this Sunday. Should clean my house--and I will--later. There's time before Desperate Housewives tonight, so got a walk to take and a cat to pet.

He didn't bring me this far to leave me.

I am blessed.
