We Are Nothing Without God

This is a day that the Lord has created, and I am so blessed to be apart of it. Everyday is a struggle, but I am grateful for the accommodations made and the personal strength that is gained. The perseverance is undeniable, it is extremely gratifying knowing I am given the opportunity to experience life. Life is a remarkable gift God gave to us, therefore we are responsible for its outcome. The life we sustain is a byproduct of the choices we made. "The Lord's blessings have no boundaries unless we put them there."

Ever so often we've been ungrateful and underestimate the power of God, but nothing is possible without Him: "by His Spirit we were made and by the breath of the Almighty life was given." Time and time again we have taken His kindness for weakness; we omit His invisible presence. God is so mighty, yet so merciful to our spirit. He's so gentle and true, but very few are the souls that love and appeciate Him. And very few are the souls that trust Him and walk with Him by faith.

Sometimes we are so busy, but it only takes a moment to acknowledge the Lord and thank Him for where you are today. We are so in love with the possessions of the world and the majority of us don't seem to have a difficulty executing the regulations of men. So why can't we be more accommodating and respectful to the Most High God. God never fails; He's always on time. And when our bodies and our belongings are no longer available to us, He will always be around.

The Lord's desire is for us to love Him; humble your spirit before Him. He is worthy to be praised. He created us for a purpose and whatever that reason may be, I want to accomplish it. His grace is sufficient and we are contingent on Him. He is the most powerful and influential Spirit. He blesses the opulent and He blesses the indigent, so niether one of us can survive without Him.
