DAD'S DAILY BREAD

15 We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves. 2 Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. 3 For Christ did not please himself, but as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.” Rom 15:1–3

God always gives me everything I need to get through the day. It is hard to put into words but God truly provides everything you need for every situation. When situations arise where you don’t feel strong enough to carry He brings people in your life to help. One great example I have of Christ is my mother. When I think back of all I have done and all the times when she should have been running away from me she was by my side always there to put my eyes back on Jesus. I honestly don’t know where my family would be without her! She has given so much and lost so much and still walks so tall with Christ. She is truly a shining example of Christ’s love and compassion and forgiveness! As she gives selflessly to women and other people struggling with their own battles. I pray you give her Your Spirit and strengthen her today! God gives and He takes away and she has lived that out for us all to see glorifying God regardless of her situation. Thank You for all You have done for me and thank You for my mother!! Bless her today!

I am not here trying to say I’m strong. In fact I feel weaker than ever as I go through my own battles but God has given us a testimony and that story has the power to help other people that are struggling. So whether you feel strong or not get off your butt and stop thinking about yourself and allow God to use your story to help someone in need! We are not guaranteed tomorrow so don’t waste anymore time! Christ gave us a great example of how to put other people first. He was a King that made Himself into a simple servant and HE came down to earth and was spit on and tortured and hung on a cross and was murdered so that I could one day have a relationship with Him. He gave His whole life for me. Who am I to deserve treatment like that…? I DO NOT DESERVE IT FOR A SECOND! No one does but Christ does it regardless. He isn’t doing it because I’m good or because I deserve it. No, He is doing it because He is good and His love and grace and mercies are unexplained! Lord I pray Your Will be done in my family! Help us to see Your plan even in the midst of suffering and let us glorify You with our lives even when we are not getting everything we want. You are the King and i am not. Help me to see Your Greatness regardless of how I feel! Thank you for ALL YOUR promises! May you keep them in the front of my mind today!

APPLICATION:

Keep reading God’s Word. It is my lifeline in ALL of life. Stay plugged in and Do not forget where I came from. God gives and takes. Be OK with both! No matter what I have everything I need. Don’t forget that and don’t rely on how I feel. Feelings cannot be trusted! Only trust God’s Word! Pray pray pray
