Through
I was walking and weeping yesterday in the park and I was quoting all God's promises to Him again, as I was reciting Psalm 23 I said "Yea though I walk THROUGH the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for you are with me". I said to God, it dosn't feel like a shadow, it feels real. It was then that the word Through jumped out at me. I have read Psalm 23 100's, if not 1000's of times and I never saw that word before.
God Is a through God, He dosn't leave His people to perish. I realize that this is not an event but a process but I'm clinging to the truth of coming through.
I suppose everyone comes through something and if you are in the midst of crisis or trouble, can I encourage you today to hold on to God. The writer to Hebrews says "He is the Author and the Finisher of our faith. God dosn't leave jobs half done, He is a Finisher. Paul write to the Philipians and says, "He who began a good work in you, will complete it" (bring you through). I take great comfort in that today, My God will not leave this old pot down untill He has crafted and completed it.
I'm not a runner but I'm told its not how you start that matters, its how you finish. Folks, we need to run and come THROUGH whatever our situation is.
I'm praying for ya. Love yas.

just read this earlier this morning after i read bout you weeping.
John says that someday God will wipe away your tears. The same hands that stretched the heavens will touch yuor cheeks. The same hands that formed the mountains will caress your face. The same hands that curled in agony as the Roman spikes cut through will someday cup your face and brush away your tears. Forever.
Still thinking, praying, hoping for you Philip!!
Luv ya..
Hey Philip... I hope you know that we're walking alongside you, if only in spirit.
Love you.

Hey Phil,
I know you've read Isaiah - "They that wait upon the Lord will renew their strength". Chuck Swindoll said once that in the toughest times we should always pray. Apparently in the praying, new strength comes! I'm praying that God will bless and empower with this new strength immediately! As always, Love ya!
