“You Say”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tz6-IqN2ruc
Before I retire for the day, I want to share with you one song that silenced the storm that was raging in my soul today.
I pray that God uses the message of this song to silence your storm too, storm of fear or unbelief, whatever it maybe, in the name of Jesus! Amen!
For Your Own Sake
The Bible says, “The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”” Genesis 2:18
The other meaning to the word “suitable” is “a lifesaver.”
And this “lifesaver” partner was found from the man’s body:
“So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh.” Genesis 2:21
“That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24
He Entrusted Himself to Him!
Peter writes:
“21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.
22 “He committed no sin,
and no deceit was found in his mouth.”
23 When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.” 1 Peter 2:21-23
Encourage One Another
My husband and I just came back from a funeral service.
One of our church worship leaders’ husband went to be with the LORD and today was the day that his body was laid to rest.
You have no idea how sad we are but at the same time, we are rejoicing because the funeral service was one of those uplifting and comforting services we have ever attended. Praise God!
Questions From Two Young Wives
Guest #1: (Her email in short in my own words)
“She Should Know Better”
“Hi Berhan, I was just calling to say hi and to wish you a happy Easter!”
This was a message I found in my answering machine right after I celebrated my first year wedding anniversary.
My first reaction was, “Who is this woman that is wishing my husband a happy Easter, ignoring the fact that I’m his wife?”
A Calm Spirit!
“He who has knowledge spares his words,
And a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.”
Proverbs 17:27 NKJV
Hmm!
Take One Step Back
If you feel like you found the love of your life, a person so beautiful/handsome who understands you more than anybody else, a person you can talk to for hours without realizing that you talked for six hours and you are already thinking about your wedding and your children you are going to have with this person BUT it’s only been two or three weeks since you met this person,
STOP!
You are drunk!
Stop and take one step back. Then take at least three or four days off from everyone, including yourself and this person and be present before God.
Let the Word of God do some kind of mental and emotional check up on you.
Then discuss your situation with someone who is spiritually and mentally more matured than you, preferably also older than you, and hear what they have to say.
You know, when we ride a very speedy train of life, more often than not, we end up in a ditch where nobody can snatch us out until we harvest ALL the consequences of our childish, careless and mindless wrong choices. ///
