10 Remember the day you stood at Mount Horeb. The Lord your God was there. He said to me, “Bring
the people to me to hear my words. I want them to learn to have respect for me
as long as they live in the land. I want them to teach my words to their
children.”
============
Slippery and slushy snow caused my footing to fail as I
slipped under the oncoming bus. The wheels stopped and I was unscathed. Dark
back roads, sitting on the trunk of my broken down jalopy not knowing where I
was, a couple picked me up and asked me if I believed in GOD. I was safe and only 10 miles from the city.
Sirens blared as I stood outside finishing my hard work and
when I turned my head a tornado was two blocks over. Our house was untouched.
- Sometimes I forget what trials I have been through.
- Sometimes I forget what scary moments I have encountered.
- Sometimes I forget what difficulties I have faced.
Looking back, I see GOD has been there all along even when I
was too scared to notice HIM. It’s not a
testament to my faith at all, only GOD. In all the situations I had no control
of the outcome nor did my talents or abilities make a difference. It was GOD
that brought me through the trials.
- GOD wants me to respect HIS power that HE’s used to protect me over and over.
- GOD wants me to respect HIS word and keep it to the best of my ability even though I sin.
- GOD wants me to respect HIS decision because HE is sovereign.
- GOD wants me to respect HIS SON for HE is GOD who died for me and was raised to life.
Remembering and respecting GOD is quite important to HIM. I
believe it’s because HE doesn’t want me to fear the unknown because HE holds
it. HIS ways are far above mine and HIS power shines through any circumstance!
- What has GOD taken you through?
- Do you remember a situation where you know only GOD brought you through it?
- Can you respect GOD’s power to bring you through this trial?
- Won’t you teach others what GOD has done for you?
