CONTINUED PROTECTION

” THE RIGHTEOUS PERSON FACES MANY TROUBLES BUT THE LORD COMES TO THE RESCUE EACH TIME.” PSALM 34:19

When I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior, he never promised me that I would have a life without troubles and struggles. He never promised me that everything I do would be turned to gold. What he did promise is his everlasting protection. In every situation that I face, every trouble I have to conquer, my Lord is by my side. I have to be reminded a lot that when Jesus went to be at the right hand of God, the Holy Spirit was sent. The Holy Spirit is with me in all things and through all things. He is with me in good and bad times. He is by my side to help me make wise decisions and to keep me on the right path for my life. My problem is that I don’t always listen to him. I sometimes forget that he is with me and try to conquer on my own doing things that only cause me more problems. However, if I just take the time to listen to him, I can save myself a lot of time as well as pain and suffering. But if I do get myself into trouble, he is always right there to bail me out. The Lord reminds me to continue to make him a part of my life. He must be my lifestyle, the way I live my life everyday. He must be the first one I think of when I have a mountain to climb or problems to overcome. With the Holy Spirt with me I can never go wrong. I just have to train myself to listen and depend upon him. He is always there to pick me up when I fall! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
