When sickness comes!

Dearest fellow children of GOD, I thank you for always following my blog and for reading GOD's word.

I have been ill with the most dreadful flu,  and have decided that during this time I would not write.  By the grace of GOD, I am feeling a lot better.  My energy has returned and I write with renewed vigour.  I have missed you all and hope that this blog will open our hearts to hear the words of our FATHER in Heaven.  I pray for each one reading this that GOD is blessing them most richly.

When illness strikes, it is always at the wrong time.  We just do not need to be ill.  However, sometimes it is GOD intervening in our lives.  It is GOD saying to us, take rest and contemplate your relationship with me.  That is what I have been doing.  I have come to the conclusion that GOD is so much bigger than my problems.  GOD can heal us and HE can decide that we are not going to be healed for  whatever reason.  The main thing is that in GOD we trust.  

Let us not question this mighty GOD we serve.  Let us endure and take our health problems and give them to HIM and then everything will be to HIS glory.  This is difficult and it sounds trite.  But I am not trying to be trite or to diminish the illnesses that some of us are having to endure.  What I am trying to do is to bring comfort in the knowledge that our FATHER in Heaven has a plan and HE knows what we are going through.  HE knows the beginning and the end of all of our stories.  HE wants the very best for us and it may not include that we are free from suffering and pain on this earth.

Therefore today let us give the glory to GOD and say:

Our FATHER, who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be THY name,
THY Kingdom come,
THY will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.
Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

For THINE is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory 
Forever and ever.

Amen.

Stay Divinely GOD blessed today.
