The Saving Grace In An Ashtray
===============================
.
God places people in our path for us to be a blessing.
.
Growing up in New York in a single parent household, my mother
would always get on me about giving things away. I can remember
as far back at the age of seven, I gave a little girl my shoes
off my feet because I saw a need. My mother would always say
that I would never have anything, but that way of thinking never
was in my mindset.
.
I know that in accordance to God’s will, when He instructs us to
give, we must be obedient because in all actuality, it all
belongs to Him. I believe if every person heeded God’s voice
when He instructs them to bless someone, we would be in a better
position as a country and as a people.
.
My son and I were in Powder Springs driving home down Hwy 278
when we saw this young woman walking, looking as though she was
exhausted. I made a U-turn and came back around and asked her
could we give her a ride. She took the offer immediately.
.
As I am driving I hear God’s voice say to give her the money
that I had in my ashtray. I don’t smoke so I would keep change
or throw the dollars I have in the ashtray.
.
The only thing was that I knew that I had $300 in the astray.
.
I didn’t hesitate, nor was I upset about His request, I just
heeded. As I dropped her off to her destination I could see that
it was an environment of drugs, sexual perversions and God knows
what. As she was thanking me for the ride, I took the money out
of the ashtray and balled it up in my hand and placed it in her
hand.
.
She didn’t know what I was giving her and I asked her not to
think nothing of it and told her that God loves her and that He
is with her every step of the way. I gave her my business card
and told her if she ever needed to get to church call me and I

Our only hope, as it turns out,
is the greatest miscarriage of justice
in all of history.
It has thrown wide the gates of heaven
to all.
O, how He loves us
unconditionally !!!!

And I will send showers,
showers of blessings,
which will come just when they are needed.
– Ezekiel 34:26
..
The fact that we are called upon to endure trials shows that the Lord Jesus sees in us something
precious which He desires to develop. We are blessed and highly favored. It’s our blessing of thorns.
Let’s wear our crown gracefully.
..
Isaiah 41:10 … “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.
Do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you.
I will help you.
I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.”
..
DON’T WORRY …
.
BE HAPPY …

G-O-D B-L-E-S-S

Smile
.
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow

“Faith is inspired by the Holy Spirit,
and it will flourish
only as it is cherished.”
..
Hebrews chapter 11 in the Bible is known as “The Hall of Faith”.
..
Hebrews 11:1
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (KJV).
..
The Bible uses the words faith and belief or believe interchangeably.
Eternal life is received by grace through faith.
Faith is the victory that overcomes the world …
..
and without faith it is impossible to please God (1 John 5:4; Heb 11:6).

Give me a sense of humor, Lord,
Give me the grace to see a joke,
To get some humor out of life,
And pass it on to other folk!
