Life is Easy

Have you ever felt like
"Your World" 
was falling apart and in
the middle of all our
pain, our 
Heavenly Father
whispers to us,
 
"Fear you not;
for I am with you:
be not dismayed; for
I am your God:
 I will strengthen you;
yes, I will help you;
yea, I will uphold you
with the right hand of 
My Righteousness."
Isaiah 41: 10

How Sweet, How Precious
is our God. 
Here He talks 
with us with promises of 
Love and Protection.
First He tell us we do
not have to fear when life
brings us sorrow and heartache.
God tells us not to be dismayed.
The dictionary says we are
dismayed when we lose our
courage or resolution about
a task before us. Have you
ever started on a day of
life, full of faith and hope,
and at some
point or another find yourself
on the ground "dismayed" by
the hard knocks of the enemy
along the way?
The Lord tells us we are 
not to be dismayed, because
He is Our God!
Our God will help us!
Our God will uphold us!
We can close our eyes,
and rest in 
His Arms as He Holds us!

When was the last time
you could feel the
Arms of God around you?
In good times or bad,
We can go to the Lord
and Trust Him to 
Hold us and Protect Us.

Children of God,
Life will not always be easy.
There will be times we 
will feel like our 
World is falling apart.
However,
In those times,
We can chose to 
go to the Lord in Prayer.
We can choose to 
believe the Word of God.
We can choose to rest in
 Loving Arms that
are open for us 
to crawl up into.
As we let the Lord
hold us,
He will strengthen us.
We will begin to
see life differently.
God will pour into our
heart a peace that
passes all our understanding.
We will be able to be at 
rest, even in the
hardest of days.

Sister Joy Loves that Old Song,

God of the Mountain

Life is easy, when your
up on the Mountain.
You've got peace of mind
Like you've never known.
But things change
When you're down 
in the valley.
Don't loose Faith
for you're never alone.
For the God on the Mountain
is still God in the Valley.
When things go wrong
He'll make them right.
And the God of good times
is still God of the bad times.
The God of the Day
is
still God in the Night.
You talk of Faith 
when you're up
on the Mountain.
But talk comes so easy
when life is at it's best.
Now it's down in the valley
of trials and temptations,
That's when your Faith
is really put to the Test.
