Why be encouraged?

Because you are alive! You could be in a hospital bed facing death. You have a computer with internet access, hundreds, even thousands don’t have computers. You can read. Many are illiterate and struggle just to understand their mail. Ultimately things will work out for good to those who love the Lord. Oh yea, baby, He is going to put it all in perspective. Justice will be served. But for now, just knowing that, doesn’t always feel as comforting. Well let me let you in on a little secret. The God of the entire universe cares about you. He is thinking about you every minute of each day (how many times a day do we think of Him???). He has not come to destroy us, but to heal us, of this dreadful existence with sin. Even I at times grow weary. Just last night I cried out to God saying Lord, if you care about me at all, just say something, send a sign or something. Within minutes I got a text from a person I call my personal angel, and the text said “Just thinking of you, (God Is With Us)”. I replied saying, “Are you my sign, did God tell you to think of me?” The reply was, “Know it! Believe It! You see my friend, I believe this was God’s way of saying I care, even though He didn’t have to respond, sometimes He does, simply because He cares. So be encouraged beloved, the day of our King is coming. The day of our salvation is upon us. Walk in His grace and know that no weapon formed against you shall be able to prosper!
