He Knows The Boundaries of My Life

God has never left anything to happenstance or chance. There are laws and boundaries in this world, and God is a God of order. I was reminded of this when I read in Proverbs 8:29 where it says "... when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command." If God has the boundaries of water set, how much more is He interested in the boundaries in my life.

His plans are good for me, and it is when I submit my will to His that I experience the safeness of His boundaries.

Can't Take it With You

I know that we all are aware that someday we will leave behind what we have "earned". But how many of us still live like we can take it with us? In Psalms 39:6 it says "...he heaps up wealth, not knowing who will get it." (N.I.V.)

Our life is so short, let's invest what we have been given, not waste it.

WHY SHOULD I VOTE?

 For yourself
 To honor history
 To control your future
 To stop something

What God Has Promised

"The fist of the wicked
will never violate
What is due the righteous,
provoking wrongful violence." (Psalm 125:3The Message from biblegateway.com)

Since we are close to mid term elections I thought I would encourage you. The truth is that God is in control. It may seem that things in our world are spinning out of control, but I am sure that felt that way during many other times in history. When God says it is enough, then it is enough.

It is easy to be provoked to try to take things in your hand, but don't be fooled God knows better. God has promised that the ungodly forces in this world can never cancel out or trespass upon what God has in store for you and me. Don't worry, just trust God.

This is how some people feel about the Ten Commandments.
