Thoughts.

Hi there.
How's things?
I hope that your'e having a nice day.
It's really wet here, I was awake this morning, and we had more heavy rain.
We haven't had sunshine for a week, and I was telling God all about it.
Our wheelbarrow at the door is completly full of water.
And sometimes life is like that isn't?
You feel like you're treading water, and you're up to your neck.
Winter can bring rain, and storms, and we get a bit sad with all the water.
But water is vital for us, it makes things grow, and it makes us drink pure clean water, so that we can live.
All that we need to do, is go to the tap and turn it on, and out comes pure cold water.
I can't help think about how much more God loves us, and provides us with every need.
Sometimes we feel a bit useless, when it comes to helping others.
What can we do to make things better for that single mother, with 4 children trying to live?
Or that person who has a one in a million sickness, that no one has heard about it.
So how do we help these people?
Are the problems that we are facing so big we just want to run and hide?
Are things really getting out of hand?
We might have a great laugh,and we might laugh for the days to come, but inside we have crushing pain.
Does Jesus want us to be like that?
Sometimes we might be wearing this mask so long, that it takes along time for us to see that it was acutally apart of us.
Loving friends stand with us right to the end.
So how do we cope with this?
If we are wearing a mask that other know we're wearing but we are blind and can't see it.
Well we cover it up even more.
Sometimes we need to cover things up, like spring bulbs in the damp, dank soil, in order to suck up all the goodness of the soil so that they can put on the most amazing, display in the spring.
The bulbs are hidden in the soil to get the food that they need to grow.
We need to hidden the soul of God, so that we can bring the joy, the hope and peace of God to the people we meet.
If you're waiting around for a day to come, so that you can grow in God, or that dream that is God inspired,  and you don't want it to go stale, talk to someone who will make that dream of yours grow wings and fly.
So don't shake your head,and say oh well that worked.
Rather, say to God, ''Lord whatever is in my hands, and what ever is your hands, lead me on.''
