WHEN YOU THINK HE ISN'T -- HE IS


-----------------
No matter our brilliance, wit, or perceived independence or strength of beliefs , there is still this one simple truth which no one and nothing can ever refute ....... the presence of God in our lives. When you think He isn't -- He is. When you think He is not there -- He is. When you think that He does not matter -- He did, He does, and He always will. Because you or any of us won't last this long without Him. We owe our lives to Him... its protection, provision, continuity, healing, abundance or prosperity, justice, forgiveness, mercy, compassion, and a whole lot more we can't even imagine. That is the simple truth.

So how do we thank Him? Simple. Just say 'Thank You' and live a life with gratitude emblazoned in the heart. Be blessed and stay blessed.

Here is a simple yet magnificent piece of advise from a parent to his child. Unfortunately nobody knows who wrote this. But I think it's similar to something I once have read in the Book. Or maybe.

To quote:
My son, do not forget my teaching
But let your heart keep my commandments;
For length of days and years in life
And peace they will add to you.
Do not let kindness and truth leave you;
Bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablet of your heart.
So you will find favor and good  repute
In the sight of God and man.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.
