What We Think

Our Thinking:
"It's impossible."
"I am too tired."
"Nobody really loves me."
"Nobody really cares for me."
"I cannot go on."
"I cannot figure things out."
"I cannot do it."
"I am not worth it."
"I cannot forgive myself."
"I cannot afford to."

His Thinking:
"All things are possible" Luk_18:27.
"I will give you rest" Mat_11:20-30.
"I love you" Joh_3:16.
"I care for you" 1Pe_5:7.
"My grace is sufficient" 2Co_12:9.
"I will direct your steps" Pro_20:24; Pro_3:6.
"You can do all things" Phi_4:13.
"I am able" 2Co_9:8.
"It will be worth it" Rom_8:28.
"I forgive you" Psa_103:12; 1Jo_1:9.
"I will supply all your needs" Phi_4:19.

DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST.................................

AFTER MANY GREAT POSTS BY RIVERBOTTOM RON IN THE LAST WEEK OR SO AS WELL AS THE LAST POST BY T. BEYER, I HAVE COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT IT IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST THAT WE DO NOT BECOME COMPLACENT IN OUR DAILY LIVES AS WELL AS OUR FAITH. AFTER RON'S FIRST POST ABOUT TODAY IS THE DAY TO BEGIN TO MAKE ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE, THE MESSAGE HAS BEEN SETTING IN THE BACK OF MY MIND, UNATTENDED TO, AND HOPING IT MAY GO AWAY OR BE FORGOTTEN. THEN RON POSTED ANOTHER MESSAGE ABOUT STEPPING UP AND MAKING IT HAPPEN THROUGH THE LOVE AND BELIEF IN JESUS CHRIST.......... THEN, INSTEAD OF SETTING MYSELF DOWN AND TENDING TO THE MATTER AT HAND, I ONCE AGAIN LEFT THE MATTER AND MESSAGE UNATTENDED TO, HOPING IT WOULD TAKE CARE OF ITSELF IN GOD'S TIME............ THEN I REALIZED THAT GOD IS TRYING TO WORK THROUGH THE MESSAGE TO GET MY ATTENTION. SO I BEGAN TO GIVE IT THOUGHT AND CARE ON A DAILY BASIS OF HOW I COULD MAKE MY DREAMS COME TRUE AND TAKE THE WORK OF THE LORD TO AN EVEN HIGHER LEVEL............ THEN THE WHEEL JUST KEPT TURNIN. YESTERDAY RON POSTED THE STORY OF THE FROG IN THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL...................................................................................................................................... I WAS IMMEDIATELY HALTED IN MY TRACKS BY THE CONTENT AND MORAL OF THE MESSAGE. I HAVE BEEN FINDING MYSELF A SIMPLE FROG AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL. I HAVE A WAY TO BE HAPPY IN MY OWN ATMOSPHERE WHILE BEING AWARE OF THE "HUGE LAKE" THAT AWAITED OUTSIDE OF THE WELL. HOWEVER, I HAVE LACKED THE "LEAP OF FAITH" THAT IT TAKES TO GET TO THE TOP OF THE WELL SO THE "BIG LAKE OUTSIDE" COULD BE VIEWED. I THEN BEGAN TO THINK OF THE ADJUSTMENTS THAT NEED TO BE MADE IN ORDER TO REACH THE TOP OF THE WELL SO I CAN GO FORWARD WITH MY PERSONAL DREAMS AS WELL AS THE ASPIRATIONS I HAVE CONCERNING THE WORK OF OUR LORD. I THOUGHT OF THIS FOR MANY HOURS AND THEN WHEN I GOT HOME AND BEGAN MY EVENING CHORES THE LORD ONCE AGAIN SPOKE TO ME THROUGH HIS MYSTERIOUS WAY...... THE ROAR OF LATE MODEL DIRT RACE CARS ECHOED FROM THE NEARBY BROWNSTOWN SPEEDWAY REMINDING ME THAT MY LIFELONG DREAM STILL LIES DORMANT WITHOUT ME MAKING A GOOD FAITH EFFORT TO REACH " THE HUGE LAKE". IT NEARLY ACHED INSIDE TO SET THERE AND HEAR THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF YET ANOTHER RACING SEASON THROUGHT THE RIP AND ROARING OF THE DIRT RACE CARS...................... I THEN TOLD MYSELF THAT I DIDN'T KNOW IF I COULD WAIT ANOTHER YEAR TO BEGIN TO PURSUE MY DREAM DUE TO A BAD ECONOMY.................MY FAMILY MUST COME FIRST AND I WILL NOT JEOPARDIZE THEIR WELL BEING AND MY DUTY TO PROVIDE FOR THEM BY FINANCING A DIRT LATE MODEL AT THE LOCAL RACE TRACK. EVEN THOUGH I PLAN ON USING THE VENUE OF DIRT TRACK RACING AS A MISSION TO SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS CHRIST IN HOPES THAT I CAN SAVE EVEN ONE SOUL FROM ETERNAL ****ATION, I STILL TELL MYSELF THAT IT WOULD BE SELFISH TO SUPPLY FUNDS FROM MY FAMILY TO FINANCE SUCH AN ENDEAVOUR. AFTER ALL OF THIS I FOUND MYSELF TO BE MENTALLY EXHAUSTED AS THE ROAR OF THE RACE CARS WOUND DOWN SIGNIFYING THE END TO THE TEST AND TUNE SESSION FOR THE EVENING..............THEN I PRAYED TO THE LORD FOR GUIDANCE AND UNDERSTANDING THAT HIS WILL WOULD BE CARRIED OUT IN A MANNER THAT WOULD BE UPLIFTING AND GLORIFYING TO HIM REGARDLESS IF IT INVOLVED ME ACCOMPLISHING MY LIFE LONG DREAM OF RACING A DIRT LATE MODEL RACE CAR............... THEN I CAME TO WORK THIS MORNING AFTER THE LORD GRANTED ME ANOTHER DAY TO TRY AND LIVE FOR HIM. I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED THIS THREAD TO START MY DAY WITH A SIMPLE REMINDER OF THE TASK I SET OUT TO ACCOMPLISH A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO WHICH IS WHERE I HAVE FELLOWSHIPPED WITH ALL OF YOU FINE PEOPLE......... THEN I SEEN WHERE T. BEYER HAD POSTED HIS LATEST CONTRIBUTION TO THIS THREAD WHICH HAPPENED TO BE A GIFT FROM HIM, THROUGH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, TO MYSELF........................................................."ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE, I LOVE YOU, I WILL DIRECT YOUR STEPS, YOU CAN DO ALL TINGS, I AM ABLE, IT WILL BE WORTH IT, I WILL SUPPLY ALL OF YOUR NEEDS." ALL OF THESE THINGS GOD HAS PROMISED US THROUGH HIS WORD IN THE BIBLE YET IT TOOK A PRECIOUS POST ON THIS THREAD TO REMIND ME OF HIS PROMISES THAT HAVE EXISTED EVEN BEFORE I WAS BORN. IT IS ALL I CAN DO TO HOLD BACK TEARS OF JOY THAT HAS BEEN PRODUCED BY THE TOUCH OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST THROUGH WORDS PROVIDED FROM SOME OF MY DEAREST FRIENDS THAT I HAVE NOT EVEN MET NOR HAVE SHAKEN THEIR HAND IN CHRISTIAN LOVE.

I DEBATED EVEN POSTING THIS PERSONAL STUATION THAT I AM EXPERIENCING BUT I HAVE ALSO BEEN MADE AWARE, MANY TIMES, THAT THE POWER OF PRAYER IS GREATER THAN ANY OTHER POWER ON THE FACE OF THIS EARTH.

SO I HUMBLE MYSELF AT THIS TIME AND SHARE WITH MY FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST THIS SITUATION THAT I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND ASK THAT YOU PLEASE KEEP ME AND MY SITUATION IN YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. PLEASE PRAY THAT THE LORD CONTINUES TO BLESS ME AND ENABLE ME TO TAKE THE "LEAP OF FAITH" FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL SO THAT I MAY REACH THE TOP OF THE WELL AND DIVE INTO THE "HUGE LAKE" THAT AWAITS US ALL IF WE TRUST, OBEY, BELIEVE, AND LOVE HIM AS WE ARE INSTRUCTED TO DO IN THE BIBLE. MAY I ONCE AGAIN ADD, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT I DRIVE A DIRT LATE MODEL RACE CAR, IT IS THE WILL OF THE LORD THAT I WANT TO PERSONALLY CARRY OUT WHILE I AM ON THIS EARTH AND IT IS HIM, WITH LOVE, THAT ME AND MY FAMILY WILL CONTINUE TO SERVE AND IT IS IN HIS NAME THAT WE WILL LIFT PRAISE AND GLORY TO WHICH IT IS DUE.

I LOVE THE LORD AND I WILL CONTINUE TO STRIVE TOWARDS LIVING FOR HIM THROUGH THE EXAMPLE THAT WAS SET FOR US BY HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, JESUS CHRIST. FOR THAT ULTIMATE EXAMPLE AND SACRIFICE, I ETERNALLY GIVE THANKS AND PRAISE HIS VERY NAME. AMEN.

BROTHER IN CHRIST,

MOST PEOPLE CAN COUNT THEM ON THEIR FINGERS. THE TRUE FRIENDS ARE THE ONES THAT ARE THERE FOR YOU NO MATTER THE SITUATION. IF YOU EVER GO THROUGH A TRULY ROUGH TIME, YOU WILL FIND OUT QUICKLY WHO YOUR TRUE FRIENDS ARE !!!!!

THE FRIENDSHIPS THAT I HAVE ACQUIRED BY THIS THREAD ARE TRUE BLESSINGS THAT HAVE BEEN SENT DOWN FROM HEAVEN ABOVE. THANKS FOR LENDING YOUR EARS AS WELL AS YOUR HEARTS.

God BLESS you, Brad.

You and Ron have touched so many on this thread and I am sure in your everyday life. This thread has been a morning devotion for me for sometime now. I may not comment on a daily basis, but I enjoy all of the post from everyone every morning.

Thank you for that. Thank you for being my friend. Ron "held my hand" when I was going thru a very hard time right here on this thread~only God knows what that did for me.

"The road to heaven is not an easy one to travel." We will have each other to help guide our way.....

God bless each and every one of you!

SOAR WITH THE EAGLES ,OR WALK WITH THE CHICKENS

ITS AMAZING WHAT CAN HAPPEN WHEN YOU GET INTO AN ATMOSPHERE WHERE PEOPLE BUILD YOU UP INSTEAD OF TEARING YOU DOWN,WHERE PEOPLE ENCOURAGE YOU AND CHALLENGE YOU TO BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE.SPEND TIME WITH PEOPLE WHO INSPIRE YOU TO REACH NEW HEIGHTS.IF YOU ASSOCIATE WITH SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE,BEFORE LONG THERE ENTHUSIASM WILL BE CONTAGIOUS AND YOU WILL CATCH THAT VISION.IF YOU STAY IN AN ATMOSPHERE OF VICTORY,YOU WILL DEVELOPE A WINNING MIND--SET.IF YOU HANG AROUND PEOPLE WITH FAITH,YOUR OWN FAITH WILL INCREASE.ITS TIME WE SOAR WITH THE EAGLES INSTEAD OF PECKING AROUND WITH THE CHICKENS IF YOU WILL DO YOUR PART BY CONTINUALLY CONTEMPLATING THE GOODNESS OF GOD ,LIVING WITH FAITH,PRAYING EACH DAY,AND LIVING FOR GOD ,GOD WILL TAKE YOU PLACES .HE WANTS WHATS GOOD FOR YOU .BUT NEVER FORGET THE PEOPLE THATS LOST AND DONT KNOW OUR SAVIOR,THAT NEEDS GODS WORD AND FORGIVENESS,WHO NEEDS HIS HELP.ITS AWSOME TO BE SUCCESSFUL,BUT AS WE ALWAYS PLANT A SEED WHEN YA CAN,ANYWHERE ,ANY TIME ,{1 SAMUEL 23 :16 AND SAULS SON JONATHAN WENT TO DAVID AT HORESH AND HELPED HIM FIND STRENGTH IN GOD ,} ,...GOD LOVES YAS , WE LOVE YAS, HAVE A BLESSED DAY, YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,RON

daily devotional

I am thankful for God and this daily devotional. God is light and God is the way.

Ron I hope to meet you at Black & Tan Days but I am not sure if I am coming this year. Last year we were awaiting the birth of our son May 7 and now we are deciding on his tombstone. Things can change in a blink of an eye. Therefore be thankful for what we have.

Thanks,

God Bless
