It's Your Time for a Breakthrough!

Hello Friends:

I was blessed recently with a Facebook post that I really grabbed hold of and the blessings started to pour in.  I am sharing the post with my readers as well as the poem I wrote that this post inspired.




Here's the poem:

Breakthrough

I wait for my breakthrough

As the sun waits for the morning

As day follows night

It’ll soon be in sight

I try not to be impatient

Not to strain or fret

Not to hold on to doubt

for which I’d regret

Having faith in Jesus

My Savior and Friend

Has helped me through

Every twist and bend

Faith is the key

that unlocks the door

To wonderful surprises

God has in store.

Your breakthrough is near

So be of good cheer

Let faith in God

Banish all fear

Pray and read

God’s word everyday

And live your life

The Overcomer's way!

HOPE FOR THE BROKENHEARTED

Today I felt a little numb as more crushing news came of a dear friend whose leg had to be amputated. I realized that for him and his loved ones the coming years seem to loom ahead, gloomy and dismal. Then another dear friend shared with me that in her time of physical challenges she drew comfort from reading 2 Corinthinas 2:16.  For her it had taken on a much deeper meaning.  As I read over the words it struck me forcibly how God had made provision in His word so that we could be comforted as we face the actual loss of our health and even the physical loss of limbs and organs.

As I searched the internet for the text a blog arrested my attention: The Bottom of a Bottle.  The song that accompanied the text gripped my heart, as did the message that "there are no answers to be found in the bottom of a bottle or on the edge of a blade!" The answers can all be found in Jesus. So I am attaching the link to the song I'm a Believer in Christ here, as well as the link to the blog here . May these words comfort your heart as they did mine!.
