Come and Seek the Lord


I try to post once a week given the time, or when I feel that there is a very important topic that I need to write about and I don't want to forget to share it through my writing.

A special sister-in-Christ comes to mind right now [please check out her site and please pray for her and her family]. As I lifted her up in prayers, I had this urge to post about how each of us are going through different trials of life. There are so many roads that are uncertain. Sometimes, we are trapped and we can't either go back or move forward. Sometimes, the roads are too confusing. There are so many unfamiliar roads that we are just totally lost right away and just don't know what to do...


But glory to God! Because of Him, we can just look up and ask Him for His guidance and strength as we travel on roads that lead to mountains of trials. He is the One Who never leaves us nor forsake us. Jesus said, "I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth, you will have many trials and sorrows, but take heart because I have overcome the world!" [John 16:33]. What a beautiful promise of how the Lord never leaves us, especially when we are going through trials.

I would like to request each and everyone of you, brothers and sisters in Christ, to pray for each other. We need that kind of encouragement. We might not know each other personally, but thanks be to God, we are One in Spirit!

For those of you hurting out there, my prayers go out to you. For you, dear sister-in-Christ, I want to share with you this song I had written on June 19, 2003:

Come and Seek the Lord

No matter how tough the trials that come your way
No matter how much they break your heart today
Fill your heart instead with joy
Knowing Jesus is there for us all

Come and seek the Lord [3x]
For He had overcome the world

No matter how much pain and suffering
No matter how heavy the burden they bring
Trust in the Lord it'll be okay
For He will show us the way

Blessings and Thanks




Wow!!! It was great to have been chosen by Sitka and her mom Andrea as they passed on the award Sitka got first!


God also pours blessings on us. His blessings are not meant to be kept but instead, when we share them with others, we bless others as well. Funny how when we share His blessings, they never run out and instead keep growing... Remember Jesus' miracle [Matthew 14:17-21] when He fed 5,000 men, not counting children and women, with only 5 small loaves of bread and 2 fishes? My, oh my! There were even leftovers...


So, I'd like to give the award back to Andrea . You deserve it, too. Please check out their blogs and you'll be encouraged, I guarantee! I also want to share the award to Inbox Ministry. Thank You Lord for Your blessings that each of us enjoy and use to encourage each other as well.


Addendum:

Wow...sorry Sitka. I didn't play by the rules with the award you had shared with me. Not that I forgot, but it's hard to share it with 5 deserving blogs, knowing that many deserve it. Now I know what you and your mom mean...So, if it's not too late to excite you by making you bark louder and wag your tails endlessly, here are the 2 rules with the "fabulous award":


Confess 5 things you're most addicted with:


1. the Bible of course, for it's a way of how our dearest Lord speak to our hearts
2. coffee, decaf or regular [I'm not picky]. There's something so magical when the aroma of freshly-brewed coffee whiff all over the house.
3. time with my husband & our precious child. Hubby is my greatest support [after the Main Man]. My world had changed dramatically when our son was born. It was that kind of change that no words could ever express nor money can buy. He is the meaning of "quality time" in my own dictionary.
4. time with my best friend. I'm so grateful and forever thankful and blessed to have met her in this pathway of life. Honesty and trustworthiness defines her character.
5. guitar. I have 3. I learned some chords on my own, write a song and with the guitar, worship my Lord anytime. [Glory to God for the talents He give us].


And now, the other rule; Pass this award to other deserving bloggers:

1. Check out
Andrea 's blog [did I hear you bark so loud Sitka?]. A very inspiring writer who has a way of making her readers feel her day-to-day appreciation of God's love.
2. I was truly touched by "Alleluiabelle", a special sister-in-Christ who pours her heart out in her words, along with God's powerful promises that will make us feel that immense "joy" despite the turmoils of life we encounter.
3. I got excited when I had my first contact with other bloggers and I was awed by the way InboxMinistry explain God's Word. I hope everything is okay with you, Inbox Ministry, keep posting...
4. Sonya, another sister-in-Christ 's site worth visiting over and over. Her "what might seem an ordinary life", she turns into extra-ordinary when she incorporates what she learns from our Mighty God.
5. As I believe that "it's better to bless others than to be blessed," I want to give this award back to you, Sitka. With your special blog, humans will be able to experience of what you go through and you are a blessing to a lot of people in ways that no humans can do.
