But God!
ACTS 13:29-30
and when they had fulfilled all that was written of Him (JESUS), they took Him down from the tree, and laid Him in a sepulcher.
But God raised Him from the dead: . . .
These two words say it all - But God! That's all that is needed to be said - we were in sin -dead and heading to hell -but God sent HIS SON to this world to shed His blood to save us - we were lost without hope -but God gave us grace- you see no matter what has happened in your life- God can change it all around in a moment- He will allow what HE allows for HIS purpose- you can be assured whatever you are going though God has allowed it - HE is in control and knows what each of need - Jesus was murdered on a tree (cross) for our sins - and when all was fulfilled of the prophecy - They laid HIM in a tomb -and that was the end - or so they thought - until three days later JESUS rose again - and HE did not do so quietly -but was seen by 500 or more people - He had beaten death and the grave for us! Remember GOD always has the last word in any circumstance- you may have a lot going wrong in your life right now- maybe you cannot even seem to keep the bills paid - the animals walked or the kids taught - we do live in a sin-filled world were selfish people live - people who want what they want when they want it - Life can really drag you down - but its so great to remember that JESUS loves us -that HE died for us - that HE gave us all we really need - Himself - so if you are consumed by this world -if life has your down - God can turn it around - when all goes wrong - wait - God will come though - ive seen it time and time again -God is faithful and true- He will never leave nor forsake us - this is good news-
If you are down - say but God! And keep on keeping on - the race set before us - We praise the LORD!
A side note: It seemed hopeless for Job -and for Joseph -our Lord also suffered - and it seemed all hope was gone - JESUS walked the earth and was always loving -always healing -always living for HIS FATHER - but to see HIM die on a cross and be put in the grave- made it seem all hope was gone - Friday night He suffered and died - but come Sunday He rose again- and everything changed -Sin lost its hold on us -we are now free in CHRIST! PRAISE THE LORD!
With CHRIST the end is already settled!
