Thought of the Day !!

The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
Psalms 145:18 (NIV)

Have you called on the LORD lately for:
1. Guidance
2. Support
3. Encouragement
4. Accountability
5. Strength
6. Forgiveness
7. Joy
8. Wisdom
9. Patience
10. Help in troubles
11. Help in sharing Christ
12. Help in being loved
13. Help in being LOVE
14. (You add in your own needs here)?

Call on Him daily and He will listen. Listen patiently for Him and He will respond. But always remember that He may not answer the way you want Him to or as immediately as you would choose.

God is not like a parent who spoils the child by giving it anything it wants whenever it wants. Instead He is like the parent who teaches the child to be a better person. And sometimes that comes through our suffering. And sometimes it comes through our being taught patience. But in all the times, even when it seems as though God is not listening, He is near (just as the Psalmist promises us).

In the love of Christ,
