A
reminder for today
The
people blamed Moses and said, "If only we had died in the LORD's presence
with our brothers! Why have you brought the congregation of the LORD's
people into this wilderness to die, along with all our livestock? Why did
you make us leave Egypt and bring us here to this terrible place? This land has
no grain, no figs, no grapes, no pomegranates, and no water to drink!" (Numbers
20:3-5)
The end of 2012 – Looking back:
Today is the last day of 2012 and looking back one can’t
help but to remember all that has happened in this year. The Israelites are
blaming Moses once again for the hardships they face and have faced and they looked
back at a time that seemed better, yet they have forgotten the good things God
has done to bring them so far and they certainly have forgotten all they have
done wrong. So the complained – again.
My dear friend, I look back at a year filled with many
obstacles and many amazing things. I see God’s hand as He guided and carried us
through so many difficult times and I see His mercy and love in so many
miracles. This year was a good year and knowing how God stood by my side
through all, I can’t wait for the year to come.
Let us look back and be thankful for all the blessings we
received and let’s forget all the bad things that have happened. Let’s take the
positive and use it as a foundation to start 2013. Let us take the lessons
learned and apply them as we continue on our journey of life.
Thank you dear friend for reading my “Today Reminders”
and following God’s Word with me as He opens it up and motivates us each day. Thank
you for taking time and sharing in His wonderful messages. May your day be
filled with His love and blessings as we say farewell to the old year and ask
God to take us into the New Year.
“The
greatest joy of a Christian is to give joy to Christ.” ― Charles H. Spurgeon
Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
This morning I found myself thinking of something I’m just not able to fix and started to feel frustrated all over again. The biggest mistake I made was to try and do it all on my own, instead of giving it over to God, completely. Only He knows and is able to mend the relationship.
ReplyDeleteI am truly thankful for your thought of today as reminder to forget the bad things and focus on our blessings. I am too blessed to be stressed!
May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence
