COPING WITH STRESS - LEARNING TO MAKE DO
LIVING HERE BY THE BAY

IS A PLACE
WHERE I AM
LEARNING TO MAKE DO
COPING WITH STRESS
LOOKING FOR MY SAVIOR TO COME
I KEEP CLIMBING
In JOHN Chapter 5.24, 25
We are told
"Verily, verily I say unto you, the hour is now coming
and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. For as the Father hath life in Himself, so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself"
Again, Jesus said
John Chapter 14.6
I am the way, the truth, and the life, No man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
SO MY BLOG POST TODAY IS ON THE MATTER OF LEARNING TO LIVE AS JESUS WOULD HAVE ME LIVE, I AM TO WALK IN THE LIGHT OF KNOWING HE IS MY LIFE, MY LIGHT, AND MY WAY.
FIRST IN LEARNING TO MAKE DO
I MUST USE WHAT I HAVE.
* Example - Moses was asked by God "what is in your hand?" Moses said, My staff. God told him "Cast it down."
It was his staff - it was all he had - and God used it.
*Example - Jesus was asked by the disciples - Send the people away - they need to be fed - and there is none here. Jesus said, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We do not have enough food nor can we go buy any.
Jesus asked them WHAT DO YOU HAVE ?
They said, Five loaves and two small fish.
He took what they had, and told them to sit everyone down in groups of fifty and a hundred, and that crowd of 5000 men not including the women and the children - which must have been about 14,000 people - all sat down on the grass. They were then to see Jesus bless the food and then give it to the disciples who then in turn gave it to them.
AFTER THEY FINISHED EATING - and the people were done -
they picked up 12 baskets of the remnants of food.
THE SECOND THING I MUST DO IS LIVE WITH WHO I AM,
