The Source

Talkers
Self Help Readers
and
Advise Seekers
ALL describe me.

How often I forget the healing balm
comes from
my Creator...
Ominipotent,
perfect in every way,
knowing the end from the beginning,
has already experienced exactly
the problems and challenges I face
and has the consummate solution to that which will make me whole?

Rena couldn't have said it better...
"We sometimes try to find answers to our most life-altering problems from 'the world',
instead of going to The One that can answer any question, calm life's stromy seas. 
and comforts our broken hearts"
(Walking with the Savior, Page 19)

How often do I turn to the world

instead of turning to the ONE
that created and atoned for the world...
Photo I took on a Golf Course in St. George
The ONE who performs miracles,
walked on water,
hears and answers prayers,
"Child Pray to Jesus" by D?
healed the lame, the blind the leperous, the afflicted, the sinners,
overcame death and
loves me beyond comprehension?

There is a scripture in Isaiah
that often comes to mind 
after agony and frustration

   of trying to discern which of all the opinions I sought would be the best outcome for me. On the brink of giving up,  I hear in my head: "Don't despair...just remember,
"The Son of God" Movie
8     ¶For my athoughts are not byour thoughts, 
"I am giving you an opportunity to change your life..." The Son of God
        neither are yourcways my dways
   saith the Lord.
       9      For as the heavens are higher than the earth, 
  so are my awaysbhigher 
 than your ways, 
        and my cthoughts than your thoughts.' "
   Isaiah  55:8-9

 As hard as that can be sometimes...
surrendering all your wishes, hopes, dreams, thoughts,
even our very selves to Christ;
it never no never disappoints.

Infact, the very times I can say that I finally handed it over to Jesus,
not pretending to or withholding one tiny microcosm 
HIS WAYS have far exceeded what my finite mortal mind could ever conceive.

HE is the ONE.
