I am overwhelmed at the thought!
Job 19:25-27 NLT
The Book of Job troubles me. It is not an easy read and I have heard it taught from different angles. It's one of those situations where you'd best be certain you know the Godly nature and character of the person teaching or confusion can slip right in. And we know that confusion is not of God.
When faced with trials and tribulations and heartaches and illness, many Christians are often conflicted within themselves.
Only you can determine what you believe to be true. Only you can choose the standard by which you live your life. Only you can know what that is.
With all the lies and confusion in this world, I must have TRUTH. Something I know to always be Truth - the same yesterday, today and forever. I believe Jesus is the Living Word. I believe the Bible is the irrefutable Word of God. I choose to live my life based on the standards defined within His Word.

Where's God in all this?I don't know any answers other than what Jesus said in John 16:33 NLT, I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.
Why is this happening?
Why has He allowed fill in the blank ?

What do I know? I know that my Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last. And after my body has decayed, yet in my body I will see God! I will see him for myself. Yes, I will see him with my own eyes. I am overwhelmed at the thought!

Prayer:
Father,
We can never thank You enough for Your Word and for loving us enough to send Your Son to die in our place. Thank You for giving us the written Word - alive and powerful - a sword to help us be overcomers of all that's in this fallen world. Renew a right Spirit within us to trust You no matter the circumstances of life. We need Your strength, O God. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
