THROUGH THE FIRE!

The last two weeks have been quite a learning curve.  If you don't accept the idea that our enemy, Satan, can hammer us once in awhile over his agenda certainly not ours, you can stop reading.

After one accident of tripping and falling, and the same thing 5 days later, plus lots of other physical pain issues, I said, "I give up!"  Okay.  Enough already.  Shortly after that statement, a call came for my help about someone.  Would I help that person get rid of the enemy or learn about how to stay away.  I knew right then, uh oh!  Something great is about to happen.  That weekend, last weekend to be precise, at church the confirmation came.  Among other things, this song.  If you like to use the internet, go in on Google and look up the Crabbe Family and this song.

Through the Fire by the Crabb Family:

So many times I question certain circumstances and things I could not understand.
Many times in trials my weakness blurs my vision and that's when my frustration gets so out of hand.
It's then I am reminded, I've never been forsaken.
I've never had to stand one test alone, oh no.
As I look at all the victories, the spirit of God rises up in me.
And, it's through the fire of my weakness is made strong.

Chorus:  He never promised that the cross would not get heavy and the hill would not be hard to climb.
He never offered our victory's without fighting.
But He said help would always come in time.
Just remember when you're standing in the valley of decision and the adversary says GIVE IN, just hold on.
Our Lord will show up and He will take you through the fire again.

I know within myself that I would surely perish, but if I trust the mighty hand of God, he'll shield the flank again, again. . .
So just hold on, our Lord will show up and He will take you through the fire again, again, and again.

So there you have it.  The complete mantra for every day.  EVERY DAY.  Don't give in, call out, and He will show up.

He did in spades this last Thursday, and its been life changing for many.  Especially me.  Its a steady confirmation that He Has IT!  God's Got It!  

Our job is to STAY THE COURSE.  It's my new steady job.
