God’s Time

God’s time is the Alpha and the Omega; it was, it is, and is to come. God’s time is also full of Love, peace, joy, compassion, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, unlike our time which has a begging and a end , our time is short , our time is limited , our time is not always filled with love, peace , joy , compassion , patience , kindness , goodness , faithfulness , gentleness , and self-control ; our time is not equal to God’s time and it never can be. However, we are each given the gift of time from the LORD who gives each of us the same amount of it. However, although we are each given the same gift of time from the LORD we all don’t use our time the same way and there has been many how have had this gift taken away from them early due to the hate in the world in which we call our “temporary home” (earth).  As we thank the LORD for the gifts he has given us we need to also thank him for the things we do not have for if we had everything then there would be no need to be thankful at all as we would have everything and it would be imposable for us to know any different. However, if we don’t have everything and we can’t get everything then we have no idea what it is like to have everything and therefore when we do get something we can be thankful for it. In a resent conversation with a very good friend of mine and a sister in Christ we talked about God’s time and how each of us had been learning a lot about God’s time the past few months or so it’s interesting that although we are living / serving in two different worlds we are still learning together, as we chatted about time it got me thinking about how we use time / misuse time and as the thought ran through my head it became apparent that as people we misuse are time more often then we use it for what it was given to us for and that is to give glory to the LORD. A few years ago back during the summer of 2007 or somewhere around then don’t fully record the date yet, the date rely douse not mater as the words themselves have more value. “Many good Christians spend lees then 5 minutes with God a day and some pastors spend less than a minute with God a day” no idea where this information came from or how much truth is behind it but, if it does have some truth to it and even a little it is very shocking. How can we say that we have a relationship with the LORD if we don’t spend any of our time with him? How can we say that we know the LORD if we spend so little time with him? How can we say we understand his love if we never give him the time to love us?God’s time is funny as it interacts with our time as too often we think that we can read God’s time when the truth is we can’t ; often people say “the time is right , I know because God said so” well in some cases this may be true but, more often then not the time may be right for us but, in God’s time it is not time and therefore it is not “the time is right” as it is not time in the eyes of the LORD. Sometimes it is time for us to find rest and peace in the LORD as he picks us up and holds us in his arms, and other times it is time for us to walk in the hot dry sun as we learn the things the LORD whishes to teach us.  It is not always easy to let the LORD carry us but, we most remember that we most let him do so for he is our father and we are his children and as children we most let our farther take care of us when the time is right.

Little things = Big things for the Kingdome of God

It does not matter if you’re a teacher, if you’re a student, a doctor, a hurting teen, or a newborn seeing the world for the first time. Each of us plays a role in one of the biggest shows on of the biggest stages in our universe; the show is called “Life” and the stage is “Earth”.  We each play a role no matter how big or small we are and as we grow older our role in the show of “Life” changes and even though we play some roles for longer times then we do others each still is very important as if we where to skip a role and not play are part the show of “Life” would not be what it was meet to be. As young children we are meet to explore and learn , as we get older and as we learn more we can play parts that require more of us and the roles in the show of “Life” get harder and harder as we grow old and as we learn.  Over the years it may seem that our interaction and the things that we have learned have little or no value yet, everything in this world has a value it may be big or it may be little but, everything is worth something. Although we may think the things we do and say have little meaning and or value they do in fact have value and therefore no matter how little or big we may thing something we do is it has an impact on those around us it may be big or small but never the less an impact is made.  It may be hard to see that our little actions have had any impact at all but, if we can plant a seed then that seed has a changes to change the world but, if we just put the seed on the ground and do nothing with it then we have done more harm than if we had done nothing at all.

Blessings and Peace

Chris

Let us remember that Jesus came to server us and not to be served, let us give thanks for the things we do not have and let us give parse to the LORD for today is a new day and everything in it is a gift from the LORD.
