I fell in love with this verse:
“I will be your God throughout your lifetime— until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you.”
Isaiah 46:4 NLT
Wow. A devastating storm ripped through Indiana and destroyed nearly everything in its path…
A massive crucifix remains standing and untouched amid the rubble ✝️
How do people not believe in God after seeing this?
Real.
I buried a child. Buried my dad. Buried my best friend. Buried my favorite dog. Been homeless. Bankrupt. In ICU due to an accidental overdose of an over the counter supplement that destroyed my heart.
My son's first Christmas, a "secret santa" paid off the layaway at K-mart on Christmas Eve...
I hated God for all of that.
But now I know he was just creating a warrior to serve him.
What is the Devil going to throw at me that I haven't already overcome?
What person lost out there is going to look me in the eyes and tell me a story I can't relate to?
I've been there. I've been beat down and broken.
Even after I was blessed beyond measure with a family and career, I was still breaking under the weight of it all....
I thought it was all over. I had given up. I said over and over, even on here, that the end couldn't come soon enough.
The day I was saved was my last shot. My last hope. My last chance....
I hit my knees because there was nowhere else to turn.
Everyone thought my life was amazing. I was in Hell. Absolute Hell.
God finally said, "That's enough. Stand up. Go do as I tell you"
That's my path now.
I'm here to tell you there is a choice for you to make on how you deal with the really hard stuff.
You can blame God..... as I did.....
Or you can praise God that it isn't worse than it is....
I lost my daughter, but she didn't lose her soul. I lost my dad, but not before we actually got to be father and son. I went bankrupt, but not before I learned the lessons that put us there. I heart my heart, but I didn't die lost. I walked in the darkness, but he didn't leave me there....
I should have praised him for the strength he gave me to get up ebery single time.....
Instead, I cursed him and blamed him for my own sin.
You have a choice today to change it all. You have a path waiting for you to take the pain and suffering and use it to shield others from the same.
It's all up to you.
"Why do you talk about Jesus so much now?"
Because I lied and blasphemed him for 26 years.
And I owe him.
And I don't want to be the one who let's you slip without hearing the good news that Christ is the way.
That's why.
I am doing as he commands me.
🙏 She was driving around praying for guidance…
He was quietly obeying a nudge he wasn’t even sure was real.
Then God showed up in the parking lot and broke both of them in the most beautiful way possible 😭🔥
One believer was desperate for a sign.
The other believer’s faith was being tested.
What happened next left them both sobbing and praising God.
Watch till the end… you’ll feel the Holy Spirit through the screen.”✝️🙏🏻
