I choose to believe.
When the weather forecast is bleak and the rain continues
and it threatens our plans - I choose to believe it will stop.
When the hospital stays continue and become somewhat a
normalcy in our household - I choose to believe that healing will come one day.
When I have cried so much that a river could form - I choose
to believe that You will hold all my tears for safe keeping.
When a mother cries for her wayward child to come home - I
choose believe that he/she will.
When a loved one is struggling to regain control of his/her
life as they age - I choose to believe that they will find comfort and
strength.
When all hope appears to be lost - I choose to believe that
better days are coming.
Is it easy to choose to believe? No - No - NO.
Satan loves to attack my mind when circumstances down here are bad; when
I am so tired that I cant see or think; when I have no words left to pray; when
I feel alone among family and friends. I
force myself to choose to believe!
I believe that Jesus Christ came to earth as a child - born
of a virgin - in a manger some 2000 years ago.
I believe that he died a cruel death on a cross and it was ugly,
disgusting and it was all for us. I
believe that Jesus carried the weight of all my sin that day and I believe that
He rose from the dead to give me eternal life with Him. I believe that He loves me unconditionally and more than anyone else ever could. I believe that He ascended into heaven and my
mansion will be ready when my time comes.
But mostly importantly - I choose to believe that he is
coming again - one day to get me! And
from that day forward - no pain, no tears, no heartache, no illnesses, no
famine, So until that time - stay away
from me Satan - you have tried and tried - you can't steal my joy nor my
soul. I am a child of the one TRUE God
in whom I place all my beliefs.
