The Sun Is Always Shining...


…somewhere in the world, but some days will be filled with rain, and dark clouds that block out the sun's beautiful rays ;even though I'm an island girl who often wishes for perpetual Summer, I understand that those rain filled days are just as important . I mean looking back at my life I've never felt the presence of Jesus as closely the times that everything was going perfectly in my life, as much as when the storm clouds began to gather, and the winds began to lash over my life, and trial after trial appeared on every side. It was those times that my faith began to be exercised, and enlarged. God is a good father, and though He does not cause the bad things in this world, He will allow them to work as a refiner's fire that removes the dross from our lives. Jesus states that in this world we will have trouble, but He also tells us to be of good cheer because He overcame the world. To me that means that I don’t have to do it alone, He has already finished the task…so why worry ? To me this journey called life is about coming to know Jesus more fully, in every obstacle, in every triumph I see His face even more clearly because He is truly with me. If this is a monsoon period in your life rejoice ! Their is a rainbow waiting for you on the other side of the downpour, and it brings a blessing to take you from faith to faith. Romans 1:17

THIS I KNOW IS TRUE

“ We all like stars floating through the night,  Flit from place to place trying to find our proper orientation-our alignment-...like a moth drawn to the flame of a distant fire we find our homing beacon: our true flame, It pulses and beckons us to begin again, Rising through the night and stirring within us an instinct as eternal as time, What happens when two stars collide? Could you be my supernova? “ There is not much that I know of this world which is vast in mysteries I must admit, but the things that I do know for a fact resonate within me because of thier truth. The existential question of why we were created is not an easy one to answer, and I’m sure it ranks up there as one of the top questions on most people’s minds-mine as well. Along with finding one’s purpose, and being true to what you believe. However there is some thing that I do know to be true. It is love which is unfailingly unconditional; it is a love which allows you to look beyond illusions, and find the thin...

Dear Restless Heart

via Dear restless heart, be still; don't fret and worry so; God has a thousand ways His love and help to show; Just trust, and trust, and trust, until His will you know.   Dear restless heart, be still, for peace is God's own smile, His love can every wrong and sorrow reconcile; Just love, and love, and love, and calmly wait awhile.   Dear restless heart, be brave; don't moan and sorrow so, He hath a meaning kind in chilly winds that blow; Just hope, and hope, and hope, until you braver grow.   Dear restless heart, repose upon His breast this hour, His grace is strength and life, His love is bloom and flower; Just rest, and rest, and rest, within His tender power.   Dear restless heart, be still! Don't struggle to be free; God's life is in your life, from Him you may not flee; Just pray, and pray, and pray, till you have  faith  to see. --Edith Willis Linn

IN THE COOL OF THE DAY

And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day God delights to speak to us, and while He does often speak audibly and in a variety of ways, most often it is a still small voice in the cool of the day. It might be that time early in the morning when you're halfway between sleep and wakefulness, when your body and mind are both at rest, the myriad of upcoming daily activities not yet crossing your subconscious, and God not having to vie for your attention ...that's how it happens for me. I once heard a pastor describe God as a gentleman who won't force Himself on you, and that is so true...He gently speaks words of love to us, an unconditional love that stands this test of time, not that we ever did anything to deserve it, nor can we ever earn it : it is a gift. For God is love, and immutable, He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Could it be that God is trying to speak words of love to you today?
