There's always something beautiful to look at somewhere. I sat in a chair this morning under the apple tree waiting for a subject to get in the view of my camera. After a while I was whispered to, saying look up. When I raised my head this is what I saw. I have posted it on my blog but it does not show all the beauty I saw. The sun was shinning through the limbs of the apple tree, but it had colors of red, blue, yellow and green flashing around it. The shade of the limbs let me see the sun without being blinded, but the colors didn't show up in the picture. This will not be a dark, dreary day for me regardless of all the fear we keep hearing on the news. My faith will not waver. I'm ready to live another 100 years. We can live in heaven on earth if we will believe, and trust in God. I have dreams that have not been fulfilled yet. I will be patient while waiting on God to answer them. So my subject is the sun, and my title is “Let The Sun Light Up Your Life” I've been through many hard times in my life, but I have never felt like God had forsaken me. He will never leave nor forsake us as recorded in His Word.
If you come to see me you
may not find my house spotless, or my hair fixed and make-up on, but
you will find the redeemed soul that put those things second in my
life when I met the Master. He does not want a lot of put on, but a
faithful heart is all He asks. My first worry is to please Him. He
lets me work at my own pace, and my own choosing. What more could we
ask for? He did tell us to read our bibles and be lead by them, but
not to put our trust in man. I have lived by this command every since
He pardoned me. Of course if I know you are coming I will kill myself
if necessary to clean, and prepare because I believe it shows respect
to company, but I would rather you come to see me without having to
make an appointment. Sometimes God leads people to go and visit
someone without having to be invited. Jesus told Zacchaeus to come
down from that tree because He was going to his house for tea. How
would we feel if we were in Zacchaeus shoes? Again I say Jesus does
not like put-on. He sees your heart twenty-four hours a day, seven
days a week. That is what we better keep clean. Let us use the
strength and ability to keep our place in order, but never make
people feel unwelcome if they stop by uninvited. Our Christian
influence will is dead already if we are ever guilty of that. “Seek
ye first the kingdom of God, and all these things will be added,”
God Bless
