God bless!

    Picture this for a moment: your siblings and you playing in the park, playing video games together, eating dinner together, sharing desserts together and one day they hate you enough to sell you into slavery. Just like that, from one day to another you went from being loved to being despised. Ever experienced something similar? Maybe it wasn't your siblings, maybe it was your ex-spouse, your children, your best friend, etc. when this occurred did you feel God was with you? I'm sure all the super Christians are preaching at the computer screen right now but I want to talk to the real, down to reality Christians that still realize they sin daily. Did you feel Him? Maybe you felt like I have, Alone. Maybe you felt broken. Maybe you felt like a piece of your soul was ripped out and trampled. Am I trying to get you down today? No, I'm trying to let you know that you are not alone in feeling the way you feel. I've been there and I know how bad it hurts but.... Through those extremely difficult times I've read stories like the one of Joseph and they have reminded me that I was designed for royalty and NO ONE can take my crown away from me! Today I encourage you to believe He is with you because He has promised to be. Believe it because if He didn't leave any of the patriarchs, He won't leave you! Forget what anyone has done to you and remember what He has, is and will do for you!

Thanking Him for being Him.

And the patriarchs [Jacob's sons], boiling with envy and hatred and anger, sold Joseph into slavery in Egypt; but God was with him, (Acts 7:9 AMP)
