GOD'S chariots

My dear sweet friend Missy gave me a book "The Christians Secret of a Happy Life" and I would like to share this from the book. The Bible tells us when God went forth for the salvation of His people, then He did ride upon His horses and chariots of salvation' and it is the same now. The clouds and storms that darken our skies and seem to shut out the shining of the sun, are really only God's chariots. Have you made the clouds in your life your chariots? Are you riding prosperously with God on top of them all? Our constant temptation is to trust in "the chariots of Egypt" or in other words in earthly resources. We can see them; they are tangible and real and look substantial; while God's chariots are invisible and intangible, and it is hard to beleive they are there. The great point, then is to recognize each thing that comes to us as being really God's chariot for us and accept it as fromHim. He does not command or originate the thing, perhaps; but the moment we put it into His hands, it becomes His and He at once turns it into a chariot for us. He makes all things, even bad things, work together for good to all those who trust Him. All He needs is to have it entirely committed to Him. Have you got any God made chariots in your life? We all should!! Think about it. If we gave every thing; all our trials and temptations, all ours hurts and frustrastions to Him, we could climb right into the will of God just as a little child climbs into their mother's arms. GET INTO YOUR CHARIOT!!!!!

GOD always is right on time

Have you ever got up and really been worried about your day. You talk with GOD and lay it all out and you still don't have an answer or a peace. Well let me tell yall something HE taught me today about trust and faith. Like I said I talked to HIM from the bottom of my heart this morning, and just did not have an immediate peace, but let me tell you, while we were sitting in the office where our family appointment was. GOD showed up! HE let me know right there in that office, HE is always with us when we need HIM even when we don't feel that peace, it is there. Thank GOD HE Loves us enough to show up and let us know thing are O.K. and all is well.

SURRENDERI

If you begin to question your surrender or GOD'S acceptance of it, then your wavering faith will produce a wavering experience. You will find it a great help to put your reckoning into words, say over and over to yourself , and to your GOD "LORD I am Your's I yeild myself up entirely to You, and I beleive that You accept me. I leave myself with You. Work in me all the good pleasures of Your will." and I will only lie still in YOUR HANDS and trust YOU. This is a paragraph from the book "The Christian"s Secret of a Happy Life" by Hannah Whitall Smith. I had to share it wih yall because it is so good. If we could only get to this place where we just lie still in GOD'S HANDS, oh how very Happy we could be. Can you see what I mean?
