When I am chopped down because of my sin and stubbornness, God will
form new shoots within me.(Job 14L7). I am given rest because of His
tender shoot, the root of Jesse. (Isaiah11:10) And I will eventually
be raised to glory by being pruned and by believing in Him. (Isaiah
4:2)
We as humans are gifted with the fact that we are so short sighted and are seldom not in awe when things happen to us that may be out of the ordinary routine, whether for good or bad. Blind sided though we are we also demonstrate remarkable resiliance. I am part of that resiliance and am here to help, through my writings and through discussions with the reader. So sit back, buckle your seat belts, and enjoy the ride.

When I am out of synch (Part 23)
Since
not everyone listens to what God says, (Romans 10:16) it is hard for
teachers and leaders to train me properly if I am not receptive and
hence I am out of synch in learning. In fact I mar the greatest
teacher of all. (Isaiah52:14).

When I am out of synch (part 22)
The
absence of good is not evil, but sin. The absence of righteousness,
that is evil. When we sin or rather when we choose to live in sin and
become evil, we choose to make ourselves enemies of God. We have
chosen alienation from Him (Colossians 1:20) When we look at the mess
we've made of what God gave us, no matter big or small, and admit
what we've done and say we are sorry, that's when Christ offers us
the opportunity to come to Him. Only in Him is their reconciliation.
(Romans 5:11) And it doesn't matter what or who we are, If we accept
that He is our Lord, then we can have that life in Him (Romans 11:15)
And once we accept Him, we are reconciled to Him and He no longer
counts our sins against us. (2 Corinthians 5:18-19) We are brought to
Him, because we have made peace. God nailed our transgressions to the
Cross. (Colossians 1:20) And by His death, burial and resurrection we become unified once
again with God. (Colossians 1:22, 1 Corinthians 5:10)
