"...but of Love, of Joy and of a Sound Mind."

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 24-25

How to rejoice in this state of mind?

I do not have the answer, but I do remember the times when I am extremely and supremely happy. I have forgotten how to be happy. I am too caught up in my own private little party to be bothered. Was I ever bothered by how I have been living while all those around me were crumbling because of my actions or lack of it?

Blind! Blind! Blind!
Sensitivity seared!

It took a hard KO punch to wake me up.
It took time and the only way yo redeem the lost time is to track back to where I was before I took the detour.
Do I regret it? Yes, I do.
I regret a lot of things lately. For things to turn, I must turn to the Lord. I am totally helpless now

Looking at the bigger scheme of things, GOD never let our experiences go without letting us get something out of it. I have learned never to take my family, my friends and my GOD for granted. Now I look back and I pray for the ones whose lives I have hurt. I could offer a few words of encouragement, but the pale in comparison to the healing powers of the blood of Christ. That is so reassuring and comforting. In His promises, trust I must and trust I will. Their well-being is secure in His hands. There is nothing to worry about. It is all good. It will all turn out good for the glory of God.

I look forward to that day we see each other again in celebration. Not in condemnation or in Judgement, but in love and in Christ Jesus.

Now, turn my crawl into a walk and help me run back into your arms, Jesus!

Bro, just to add, Pastor Prince does preach about Suffering, but he doesn't dwell in it. He focus his ministry at giving the answer and solution which is found in Christ Jesus, rather than dwelling on problems and suffering.
