Devotional Life With Paul and Jeanne

Guilt is something that can dog us for years and years.  it is like a. wound that needs tending to.  So what oh what to do with our guilt?  Use it as a springboard to healing through honest deep personal prayer before God, also known as confession and repentance. 

There are things that can come along in our lives which may give us a reflection of ourselves that we may not like.  Suggestion, walk through those things in prayer and holding on to the hand of our loving Savior.  He can lead us through anything! 

Our Lord has an intensity when it comes to unity, love for others, yes even for enemies and the Forgiveness of Others.

Remember to trust Gods sovereignty, He is in charge and He is working out His plans, His will in order to bless us. 

How gracious of God to forgive us, to hear our cries for help and move us on to blessings.  Grab a hold of Gods blessings then and be thankful 

Your faith can and will touch those around you, and leave ripples that touch so many lives, more than you can imagine.  You are valuable, your part in God's great plan is needed. Never forget that dear friends. 

The path we often go that takes us where Gods wants us to be, is far more like a zig zag rather than a straight line. None the less, all with purpose and design.  Our job is to grow where we have been planted, and to skip, self pity and to drop any resentments and to keep on trusting God. That is where the course is won. 

Since God know all, all about our lives and what circumstances well hit our lives next, shouldn't we be making every effort to remain connected to Him, listening all the while, not only for what we now need, but building in every way for our future? 

What really do we have but what God has granted for us to have.  And what giftedness we do have, what a joy, really, to use them for the blessing of others. 

Who likes to wait???  But since God is always at work, when I wait on Him, as I keep on trusting in Him, I can know that He is setting the stage for better things. 

How are you at delivering the truth, even when the news is not so good?  Actually we give the Good News about God and His love and His free gift of Salvation because there is so much bad news in this world.  And how about the world to come? What is the news we have been entrusted to deliver?  

#138 Don't Forget About Me. Perhaps one of the greatest sorrows in life is to feel forgotten. But lets consider this, God who knows all has not forgotten you.  He is there calling to you and working for you. Talk to Him, reach out to Him, even right now. 

There is a mind set among many believers that we are here to help others and point them to God, Let's see how that works out in our lives.

So what are you like when things go wrong?  I'm sure we all could have stories to tell.  Ones that may not show us in the best light.  So how can God take the not so pleasant things in our lives to work out for Good.

How many times have we encouraged others to look on the bright side of things?  Are we those who do the same for our selves?  So what might that look like?

The idea of a Cover Up, is a bad thing, it says that the truth is hidden, and often times it is the ones who are doing what is right, that take the hit.  Are there such things as personal cover ups?  Let's explore that. 

Would you think that running away from a situation would be godly, would show wisdom and strength?  Let's look at it. 

When we do make mistakes in life, when we blow it towards others, is there an ultimate responsibility to God?  Is all sin ultimately against God? 

Does God have a job for me?  How would God want to use my life to make a difference in the lives around me? 

When God is with you; how might you explain that? Will everything go your way?  Will there be any trials?  Let's talk through this important subject.

The Bible assures that all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. When the hard and confusing times of life hit, as they will, we can stand strong, and cling to The Lord.  Stand strong Believers in Jesus Christ. 

How important is it to you that folks give you the plain truth?  And what is it like when someone tries to sell you a story, a false story?  Speaking truth really is a character issue.  Let's all just pass on going down the liars road.  

God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.  It is a life filled with His love and goodness and of eternal value.  

The heart of the matter is always the heart.  Where do our thoughts and actions come from, they spill out from our hearts. What is truly there good or bad will look for opportunity to express itself in our actions. 

Anger, it sure can harm a lot of people, oneself included, so where can it take us and what can we do with it?  Let's explore just that.
