I have no where else to turn but to Him during this (or an any) season of life. The waiting for a job for Michael is at times, down right painful-physically, emotionally, spiritually. I am thankful that I have ben blessed to live in this great Nation, but at times I think that living here can be a bit of a curse. Our culture is driven by the right here and right now mentality. We find it so very hard to wait for anything- food, clothes, music, entertainment, results-you name it. What we want, we get, and frankly, we think that we deserve it.
Through the past few weeks in Bible Study we have been walking with Jesus to the Cross, and this week, beyond. God's Word has really penetrated my heart with a deeper knowledge that I deserve nothing but death. But God, in His infinite mercy and grace, extends His love to me through His Son, Jesus. If there was another way for man's sin debt to be paid, God would have come up with that plan, but there was no other way. Only His perfect, Holy Son could be the Passover Lamb. It was for that reason that Jesus endured the Cross, the most painful and humiliating form of punishment. He removed His royal garments to be clothed in nothing but the sins of all this world, past, present, and future; so that those that were given to Him and believe in Him would be free from that sin forever! So while my family endures the waiting of God's provision of a job, a new home, new schools, a new place to show His love to others, I can only praise my Lord for what He has done for me and for all who believe that He alone is The King, God's Son! May His Name be lifted high!!
