GOD’S IN CONTROL!
GOD’S IN CONTROL!
God is in control of our lives even thought the tragedy of life is snatched from our hands. We are unable to see through the tears and broken hearts. Grief has stricken us all.
The enemy has come and taken a life. But God is still in control of our lives. He has a way of mending those broken hearts and wiping away the tears. He’s still in control. If only we can give what scraps of our lives that we have left over. Allowing God to mend them.
God has a way of turning around what the enemy meant for evil. For his kingdom, his glory, even when we do not fully understand why such a tragedy could happen to us.
GOD IS NOT A GOD WHO WILL TAKE A LIFE. HE GIVES LIFE TO ALL!
Those that prayed this life will be found and brought home to safety. What was in your hearts? Bitterness, hatred and un-forgiveness? But yet we cry, why did he just let this life be snatched away from us? Such an innocent child who did no wrong!
Why didn’t God hear and answered our prayers? Did he just not care?
For God’s word tells us to forgive seven times seventy. “For if we forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”
We have a God who loves us and forgives us. But are we willing to let go of all the hatred, bitterness and un-forgiveness that dwells in our hearts?
Justice will be done to this enemy, who took a life without thinking of his own. Can we forgive him and pray in one accord that he will be found and off the streets. Can we allow God to be in control as to what will happen to them?
“VENGEANCE IS MINE, SAYS THE LORD!”
ARE YOU WILLING TO LET GO AND LET GOD BE IN CONTROL?
AND LET THE PEACE OF GOD RULE YOUR HEART!
Acts 17:24-26 (New International Version)
24"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. 25And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. 26From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.
“God had given me this poem in Oct. 1992”
Just few days before Halloween a nine year old girl was kidnapped from our little town.
Her name is Shauna Howl. She was found a few days later in another town thrown off a railroad bridge. She was brutally beaten, raped. Three men were later arrested in 2003 for her murder. What was to be a joke for our police officers turn out to be the worst tragedy for this little town.
They had only planned to take her for a short time to see how the police here would handle it. They claim they meant her no harm and had planned on returning her to her family.
Then something went wrong and Shauna never came home to her family.
While I was writing this poem for Shauna the Lord showed me that it is a must when we pray our hearts must be right with him. No bitterness, hatred and un-forgiveness must not be found in our hearts for prayers to be answered.
That is hard for some when we see death that was not to be! Everyone in this town wanted to find the murder and take care of them like they took care of Shauna.
This is poem is just not for Shauna, it is for every one in the world to know and understand what God expects from us that is forgiveness even it is for a murder!
This has helped me to forgive my dad for my mother's death which was accident.
Also for a friend of mine who's husband had stabbed her over 17 times in front of her 3 year old daughter!
Sue begged me to go with her to take a birthday gift to her daughter who her ex husband to be, had custudy over her. I did not see any reason to go, in spite of her telling me he will kill her.
I did not really think he meant that! I had seen him with the girls at the place we worked at. But he did an I blame my self, God showed me If I had gone he would have killed me as well.
We can not judge him; we do not know his heart. Only God alone can do that. And someday we have to stand before God and be accountable for all we have done.
Over the years I found that answer prayers depend on what is in my heart at the time.
Also knowing that not all prayers are God’s will for us and he does say no at times for something that is just not right for us. For only God knows what is best for us!
No matter how hard it is to forgive someone, and if you just can’t find that in your heart then ask God to show you how to forgive in the way he wants you to. It might not happen right away but over time he will show you how to forgive that person who done you wrong.
