Just had to share these thoughts with you today, it is too good to
pass up! Racing through our days
they can become overwhelming, right?
I can answer for you, with a big “YES”! Can you relate to the above picture?
We have had a
well earned phase we say around our household…. “WELL Who ain’t!!!”. We coined that phrase many years
ago after I had gone to the doctor feeling SO tired. I was convinced I had some bad disease. Luckily, I had a doctor that wouldn’t
let me whine! Dr. Hillsman made
“great calls” on diagnosing my conditions when I would go in for a visit. Being a pastor’s wife at the time, I
had been “spinning my wheels” doing ministry. One day I went in ready to convince him I was really
coming down with “something”.
He sat listening to me with patience and full attention. While I shared my concerns describing
my symptoms, I looked at him expecting some sympathy, I said, “doctor I’m just
tired”. He looked up from my
chart right at me as he was seated on his stool with his skinny little leg
crossed over the other, and said…”WELL…Who ain’t!!!”. So that day he put me in my place and gave this family a one
liner we have used since then.
That one sentence with three words accomplishes just what it says. I went away that day with a feeling of
wellness, which proves it can all be in the mind. We can buy into a lie and build on it, as I did that day,
thinking something was bad wrong with me!
Well back to my morning experience. While reading my Scripture reading for the day,
and a devotional I selected, I got a telegram from God. The message is “I AM and I am here and
it’s alright, I WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU, even in your overwhelming days.” Right then I looked out my window and
there it was. It had just finished
raining heavily, and then the sun began to appear for the day and Wow!
Right
out my front window was a beautiful rainbow only He could put there for
me. I felt like the only person in
His world at that moment and He was speaking to me. Enjoy it with me and when you look at it, what ever you are
facing, you can hear the same message for you because He does this for you too!
OH HOW HE LOVES US….
We have both been treated to a rainbow in the last 24 hours...no surprise that Father is speaking to both of us. He is able, my friend. Be encouraged. Part of the book, He Loves Me, teaches that we can ask Father to reveal Himself to us in special ways...what a great revelation of His mindfulness of you and I.
