It felt like no one else could understand the burden I was carrying. I was swamped by a wave of discouragement. I could have lost the love of my life at a couple of points. There are moments when you feel totally abandoned and isolated, alone and then there is Jesus; His hand on yours saying, “I’m right here.” That might be the kind of ‘be there’ person you need in your life right now. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Most-Important-Relationship/Flying-High-Falling-Flat-4969 2008-08-12T10:57:46-05:00 Every time God does something good in your life, the devil is there with some cheap shot he wants to use to rob you of the joy of what God has done. Don't fall for it. It's like you've just won the Super Bowl, you're walking off the field, and your defeated opponent says, "I'll make you pay for this." And he gives you a bloody nose. Yeah, he hurt you a little, but he can't change the outcome. You still won, and nothing he can do can change the victory. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Most-Important-Relationship/Frozen-in-Time-3868 2008-07-29T15:46:57-05:00 Now it wasn't quite a class reunion for Saul of Tarsus, the violent persecutor of the early Christians. But there were some people who knew what he was like who were in for a major surprise. Our word for today from the Word of God begins with Acts 9:26. Now, on his way to arrest more Christians, Saul has encountered the living Christ on the road, and he's surrendered his life to the very one he had so violently opposed. Now the Christians back in Jerusalem hear that Saul is back in town--and they're not very excited about have the old "hit man" around. http://peggiesplace.gospelcom.net/biblebytes289.htm 2008-04-10T12:55:20-05:00 Olympics fever is in the air.....and so are the fanatics who are chasing the torch!
