Why God Why

[mjrhealth]

Is nothing happening in my Life?? Because you wont let me do anything.
Are you not speaking to me.?? I am, you are not listening.
Wont you change the world.?? Again because you wont let me, you are too busy trying to do it yourself.

In all His Love

Very good!


God says.. MY sheep HEAR my Voice... and if you love me you will obey my commandments. God's Voice or Word warns us of living in sin, for He can not and will not bless sinful behavior.

Rom 6:12-16
12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
KJV

Want prayers answered and God blessing your life.. then shed that flesh man that keeps you from reaching your promised land.

 

[Dan57]

I ASKED GOD

I asked God for strength that I might achieve,
I was made weak to humbly obey.

I asked for heath that I might do greater things,
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.

I asked for riches that I might be happy,
I was given poverty that I might be wise.

I asked for power that I might have the praise of men,
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life,
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.

I got nothing that I asked for,
but everything I had hoped for.

Almost despite myself,
my unspoken prayers were answered.

I am among all men most richly blessed.

And God Said No
by Claudia Minden Weisz
I asked God to take away my pride. And God said “No”.
He said it was not for Him to take away, but for me to give up.

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole. And God said “No”.
He said her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.

I asked God to grant me patience. And God said “No”.
He said patience is a by-product of tribulations. It isn’t granted, it is earned.

I asked God to give me happiness. And God said “No”.
He said He gives me blessings, happiness is up to me.

I asked God to spare me pain. And God said “No”.
He said suffering draws me apart from worldly cares and brings me closer to Him.

I asked God to make my spirit grow. And God said “No”.
He said I must grow on my own. But He will prune me to make me fruitful.

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. And God said “No”.
He said He will give me life, that I may enjoy all things.

I ask God to help me love others, as much as he loves me.
And God said “Ah, finally you have the idea!”

Amen Dan57

In all His Love

 

[IanLC]

Amen! I agree God is still speaking by His Spirit, in His Word, through the preaching & teaching of the gospel, through creation and through each of us believers!

 

[pompadour]

All of these statements are wisdom from God, and they all speak of our need for humility.
To God be the glory.
