“Fear not for I am with you, be not dismayed. I am your God; I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Is. 41:10 Storms will come into our lives as surely as springtime thunderstorms in Texas. We do not always know when they will come, where they will travel, whether they will bring rain, wind or hail or how much damage will be done. So how should we prepare for such a crisis in our life and how do we move forward once we experience the emotional and financial pain of such a blow? First and foremost is our relationship with our God. Please reread the words above from Isaiah 41. Know without a doubt that God has chosen you as a member of His Family and you belong to Him. Let daily prayer, reading and study of God’s Word strengthen that personal bond. When mistakes plague your life, and they will, confess your faults—your sins—and accept God’s complete forgiveness. Secondly, continue to build relationships with those around you—family, friends and co-workers. Strengthen those bonds by learning to forgive those who fail or hurt you. Forgiveness is the power, the authority you have from God Himself—a power that you can have over anyone who wants to hurt or even destroy you. So forgive and keep on forgiving until the past can no longer control you. Next, remember to take time—time to hurt, time to grieve, time to evaluate and accept, time to change and time to make wise and healthy choices. Listen. Listen to God. Know that He or His promises have not changed. He hasn’t turned His face from you or abandoned you. If you need someone to listen to you and your feelings, I have good news for you. I know several people who have been specifically trained for such a time as this. They are ready to develop a one-to-one ministry relationship with you and confidentially walk with you until the crisis passes. Please let me know if you or someone you know may be interested. God has so many and wonderful gifts He wants to share with His chosen Family. I hope that you will accept His manifold gifts and find ways to share with others. Please join me as we lift up the following students and their families in our daily prayers: May 17---Bennett U., Brittan W., Ryan B., Morgan D. and Haley G. If you have any questions about Baptism, would like to have your child baptized or have other spiritual concerns, please contact me at extension 236 or e-mail curt.riske@princeofpeace.org. Have a blessed week!! |
