WaxNotNeeded - Tick Tock Goes The Clock
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written:
“For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 8:35-39

As we are all human beings with the gift from God of free-will, we all at some point will sin/fall/stumble, etc. Some people have momentary spurts of a certain disobedience, where-as others battle with a thorn, that never seems to escape them. Heck, sometimes there are even multi-levels of both of those instances, stacked upon one another as with our gift of free-will, came likewise (I believe) the urge to want to be “in control” of what we say, do and are. As believers, you have accepted that your life is not your own and you ever work, each and every day to come closer to aligning your complete being with God, so that you are in fact, one of the same. Of course none of us will completely ever succeed in this, as we live in a sinful word and are imperfect beings. However, our imperfectness is the name reason that Christ died for us. God, as in the form of the Trinity, is not surprised by anything that you, as He knew it all before you born. Bluntly, if God didn’t want you here, you would not be here. So let us never be discouraged by what we have done in the past or what we may fail at in the future. Each month, each week, each day, each hour, each minute, is a chance to re-align our wills to God’s and to improve upon ourselves from the instruction of the Creator. May we all use our time wisely while here.

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for waking us up each and every morning, until You are ready for our time in this place to be through. May we live in the confidence not of ourselves, but of Your Glory, as ALL THINGS come from You. May we truly understand that NOTHING happens without your higher level authority and though we may not understand all things, we simply TRUST IN YOU. May You lead and guide us, through Your word, through the Holy Spirit and through wise counsel. We ask these things in the name of Your son, Yeshua, whom without which our world would cease to exist, ><>
