Halelujah
Well, I've been blessed. God is not Dead, He IS ALIVE AND WELL!
Just when you begin to wonder if He's still watching over you, he gives you a little nudge just to remind you that yes He is Still there. I've had people voice opinions about the use of the word "still". They say that "still" implies that there is a possiblity of him leaving or moving or being dethroned.
Well, this is what I say to that.
There has been times and will continue to be times when my flesh is weak, and my body is weary, and my soul is parched and dry. In those times I begin to wonder if God is there. I know that he is but there is a doubt, maybe its some situation or some sins that has crept in my life, but there is a need to "peek" around the corner to see if He is indeed "Still" there, the answer is always the same... "Yes, He is!"
There have been times in my youth camping in my back yard, when I've been scared, the noises in the woods, the chill in the night the stories that were told and the smell that seem to permiate the very air that surrounded me. I got up enough courage to unzip the tent door scared to death that I was somehow all alone out in the woods, but lo and behold, there was my mom or dad looking out the window, making sure that I was safe and sound. I remember camping one time with a friend in the back yard and after a very frightening night, I was awakened by footstep of my parents making sure once again that I was okay.
The same principle applies in the Spiritual realm. Sometimes you get discouraged, depressed, scared, maybe you've even drifted away, you can always peek outside and look toward heaven and see GOD looking down on you making sure everyting is alright.
So to me "Still" is not a word that means that he may leave you, but instead, its a word that mean assurance that He has not left you, that He is Always there.
After all..."for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."
God bless you all.
Until next time
