You Can Run, But You Can't Hide

      "If we say we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth is not in us."  (1 John: 1:8)

There is no way to justify sin in our lives; no way to just gloss over them.  Sometime, when we go to God with our sin, all we want is a covering; an easy way out.  How can God heal what we deny?  How can He touch what we cover up?

      What does God have to say about all this dodging around sin in our lives?

God will come to you when you lead a blameless life.  You must not look upon evil things of this world, and have nothing to do with such them that do.

Our God reins over all.  It is our Lord who made you and you are His child.  Our Lord is great and is worthy of all our praises.  The splendor of His holiness causes the world to tremble; In His great name, all the earth all will bow down.

When your foot starts to slip, and anxiety is great within you, in His great mercy He is always there in His great love to support you and bring consolation to your soul.  How great is our God.

God's Signiture

"Before I made you in your mother's womb, I chose you", (Jeremiah 1:5)

It's no acccident that you are in the world; you are a gift to the world.

We are't the only creatures with flesh, blood, and heart.

What makes us special is God,s signiture on our lives.

We are His works of art;  created in His image to do good.

We are significant not because of who we are, but because of whose we are.

The Powerful Sight of God

What does worship me to you?   In Psalm 34:3,  O, magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt His name together.  Worship is the act of glorifying Gold  Enlarging our vision of Him changes our perception  of Him

"Holy, Holy,  Holy,  Lord, God Almighty".  That says it all.

One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I might dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord .and to seek Hm in His temple.  For in the day of trouble , He will k33 me safe in his dwelling.

Who Made You God, the Judge?

It is so easy to be the judge when its you that's been hurt.  Some will rehash the same hurt every chance they get with anyone who will listen.

One question?  Who made you God, the Judge?  "Vengence is Mine" declares the Almighty.  I will repay".  (Hebrew 10:30).  "Wait for the Lord, and He will make things right", (Proverbs 20:22).

You are assuming God can't do it when you take over.  Revenge is irreverent.....to forgive someone is to display reverence.

Forgiveness is not saying the other guy was right, it's stating that God is faithful and will handle it justley.

That, my friend, is called trusting God.  The Bible says He is our refuge our strength an ever-present help in trouble.  Who are we to fear.  Not even if the earth gave way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam.  There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the Holy place where the Most High dwells.

He says to us, "Be still and know that I am God", (Psalm 46:10)

Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self controlled set your hope fully on the grace to be given when Jesus Christ is revealed.  How great is our God.  Do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.  But just as He called you is Holy, so be Holy in all you do.

Since you call on a Father who judges each mans work impartially, live your lives in righteousness.  For you know is was not with perishable things such as silver and gold that your were redeemed from the empty way of life, but with the precious blood of Christ

Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth, love your brothers, love one another deeply from the heart.
