Storms? Trust The Lord God!

by Hazel Straub

Have the storms and earthquakes in your life, caused all the familiar obstacles, mountains and landmarks, to disappear? Did the things you used for direction, vanish? Fear not! There is One on whom you can always depend, The Lord God, whose covenant of blessing and faithful love, remains. Make him the main focus in your life and see your world stabilize, while everything else shifts and changes in your life. He brings wholeness out of the chaos and lights the darkness. Trust in the Lord, his mercy and love will never fail you.

For the mountains may move
and the hills disappear,
but even then my faithful love for you will remain.
My covenant of blessing will never be broken,
says the Lord, who has mercy on you. (Isaiah 54:10 NLT)

Attitude Determines Our Altitude

by Hazel Straub

Our attitude determines if we have abundant life or merely exist. When we keep our eyes focused on God, his love for us, his faithfulness, and his tender care and provision for us, we will have joy that bubbles out of us and heals. Laughing and enjoying the simple things brings health. Also, reading and meditating on God’s promises to us in the Bible, makes us cheerful. In contrast, when we think on the negative, the things that have gone wrong, our hurts, focus on the problems, and embrace hopelessness, our bones dry out, then we deal with sickness and depression.

Will you choose to have another thought, change your focus to the Problem Solver and think on how much God loves you?

A joyful, cheerful heart brings healing to both body and soul.
But the one whose heart is crushed
struggles with sickness and depression. (Proverbs 17:22 TPT)

Bitter Or Forgive?

by Hazel Straub

How many times have you tried to deal with the symptoms manifesting in your life, without success? When we do not deal with the root issue, we have many symptoms. These include unresolved anger, hurt, offense, jealousy, envy, rejection, abandonment, and refusal to forgive. These and other things can cause a root of bitterness to become rotting garbage that makes the atmosphere around one very unpleasant for the one carrying it and others nearby.

It is a choice to live bitter or become better. One’s experiences can result in resilience and leaning on the strength of Christ Jesus. We can choose to forgive as Christ has forgiven us and let the offenses go, bringing favor into our lives. Or we can hold  the hurts and become bitter. Which one will you choose today?

Tolerate the weaknesses of those in the family of faith, forgiving one another in the same way you have been graciously forgiven by Jesus Christ. If you find fault with someone, release this same gift of forgiveness to them. For love is supreme and must flow through each of these virtues. Love becomes the mark of true maturity. Let your heart be always guided by the peace of the Anointed One, who called you to peace as part of his one body. And always be thankful. (Colossians 3:13-15 TPT)

Looking Forward To Your Life’s Destiny

by Hazel Straub

Your life is not defined by your past but by your destiny that God has for you. As believers, we live in Christ and have special assignments planned by God. Each destiny is important.

Are you looking forward to your purpose and destiny or are you stuck in the past?

We have become his poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny he has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it! (Ephesians 2:10 TPT)

The Secret To Abundant Life!

by Hazel Straub

The Apostle Paul writes about the key to excellent life. His circumstances, of plenty or lack, did not dictate whether truly lived life, not merely existing. His secret was to do all things through Christ, who gave him strength. His focus and faith was in Christ, not the changes to his situation.

Can you say with Paul, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me?”

I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:13-14 NLT)
