Psalm 25

This last weekend I visited a church . I haven't been going to my church because I work there.
I try and justify the fact that I am there so I feel like I don't have to go when I am off ,that is an excuse and just plain selfish on my part. I think I spend so much time there that I don't want to spend my time off there as well. For that I am truely sorry and I have suffered because of that. This weekend showed me that.


The Pastor preached on Luke 7 :35- 50



Alabaster Box





There was this women that heard Jesus was going to be at Simon's house. Everyon made fun of her , she was as they called a prostitue. She knew how everyone felt about her but didn't care, she wanted to see Jesus so she showed up . When she saw Him she knelt at his feet ,her warm tears dropped one by one onto His feet. This public act was looked upon as disgraceful for a women of her day.Simon the host denounced Jesus and questioned the "Prophet's" integrity for allowing such a women of such a notorious reputation to touch and disgrace him. While the Pharisees looked outward to the woman's appearance Jesus looks at her heart ,as he does all of us. I know that I am grateful Jesus loves me even though I can be difficult, unlovable and just plain selfish......I am grateful for this weekend for so many reasons. He shows me that I am loved and that all I have to do is turn around and see He is right there for me. I knew all this but I guess I just had to be reminded. We have a loving God someone that in spite of us loves us anyway.











So now as I was listening to the radio Psalm 25 was mentioned. I came back to my room and read it over and over again and cried like a baby. The enemy wants to rob us of our joy but I won't let him. "To you O lord I lift up my soul in you I trust, O my God ...........





So through all of the trials in our lives and all those bumps in the road trust that God is right there for us. He will get us through all those tough times when we feel like there is no where to turn............











Show me your ways, O Lord teach me your paths......It's always through these tough times that that our Faith is strengthened





I thank God for all that He reveals and all that he allows us to go through to get us where He wants us.....


Thank You Lord for loving me and saving me over and over again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
