Nothing can harm you, including death. No circumstance of life can take you away from God. When I worry about something I think it through to the worst possible conclusion, which usually means death. Then I believe death is just the last dark gateway to bring me to God himself. I am trusting Jesus to have dealt with the matter of my sin and now I am accepted in the beloved. God accepts me because Jesus died for me. If you can say that too, then meeting God is the greatest pleasure possible. All my talk of electricity cuts will not alarm you because the worst outcome of that is dying of the cold and there we are at that gateway to God Almighty. How wonderful to experience life fully in tune with God.
Every time I take a few days off from my blog my ratings slump. Very rarely do people go back into my old posts and read again. This is a typical attitude of the human heart, always wanting something different. At this time of year we should not be greedily wondering want new thing we will be getting for Christmas. Instead we should be looking at the old, old story, which is ever new of a baby who amazingly was God incarnate, God's gift to those who will put there trust in this one who was to grow up to give His life for His people. Set aside the controversy over whether December 25th is the actual date of His birth.(Shepherds do not keep their sheep out at night in Israel in December.) and set aside time to think about the fact that He did come and ponder if He came to set you free and if your answer is ,"Yes," He will make you free indeed.
