We often wonder why things happen the way they do. Was it my fault? Did I displease God?

There are many times we feel this. It could the lost job; losing the battle of addiction, health issues, etc.

I need to make something clear:

  • God cares for us.
  • He is always near.
  • He wants us to have the best life possibly.
  • He made us in His own image, which proves how much He loves us.

When you believe all that I posted above, then you know that God doesn’t cause the things that happen to us. They happen because He wants us to depend on Him to help us through those storms of life. He wants us to call on His name for help. He will be there.

I know this, because He heard my cries for help and recused me from the pits of the muck and mire. I was ready to check out of this hotel called earth, and He stopped me. He had work for me to do, and the work became the book, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.”

I am the main character of the book. I share my battles and how I over came them. I didn’t pull any punches. Some think the first section is a little dark. Well, my life was dark at one time, and I needed to have you feel how it was for me.

By the end of the book, I praise God and encourage others to do the same.

You don’t have to wonder if od cares. You just need to go to Him and pray for His guidance. He listens and will give you insights you never though were possible at one time in your life.

Check out the book trailer “Signs of Hope: ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World,” on the right below the Amazon icon. It will explain in more detail how the book can help.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

I have some issues with heart problems, and I have been in cardiac rehab for a couple of weeks.

Yesterday, we had a special class on nutrition before our workout. It was a great class on what we should and shouldn’t eat. There was one little problem. There was a man in the class that kept interrupting the speaker. He kept bragging about how careful he was about eating and kept giving suggestions to the speaker on what she should be telling us. The speaker had to firmly tell him to cork it!

I was sitting there asking myself: “If this guy is such a good eater and has all the answers on what we should do to be healthy, why is he in cardiac rehab?”

I have read somewhere, that no matter how careful you are with your eating, or how rich you are, you still die. Now that seems to be a harsh statement. I thought it was for a long time until I realized that man is not perfect. Only God and His only begotten Son are perfect.

We will all die sooner or later, but there is hope for each of us. We can have eternal life if we believe in the Lord. It isn’t hard to do. All you have to do is confess that your aren’t perfect; confess your sins, and accepted Jesus into your heart. Done deal!!

You need not fear death any more. It is just a transition time in your life. The next stop is eternal joy and peace.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

Easter Gatherings Can be Sinful!

 What an Easter weekend I had. I started out being optimistic about being “good,” with my eating and then completely failed on Saturday, the day before Easter.

We had a wonderful setting for the gathering. We were on the Oregon Coast, and it was a perfect day. There were no clouds; a little windy, but warm.

Then the family started coming. One had my favorite bean casserole. Another had ham that was  perfect. Then there was the spaghetti, made just right. Of course the scalloped potatoes.

Before we ate the main course, there were the appetizers. There was shrimp with some wonderful cocktail sauce. The deviled eggs were beyond description, and the homemade dip for the relish dish, was outstanding.

After I pigged out on all of that there were the desserts! Apple pie; perfect brownies; cupcakes, and chocolate pudding pie.

So, my dream of being good lasted only as long as I didn’t see the food. Once I saw it I fell apart quickly.

That happens to all of us in our daily lives. We “promise” to not sin, but when the temptation comes we often fall apart. We want the main dish of life , and the dessert as well.

Temptation for food, or our own desires in our lives are hard, at best, to conquer. That is when we need to turn to God. We need to depend on Him. If we think we can go life without God, Dr. Phil would ask, “How is that working for you?”

Always keep God on your side. When He is on you side, who can be against you?

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!
