Endings and Beginnings

Hello God,

In the words of Beth Moore referencing Genesis to who you are.
  • He's the Alpha and Omega. God, after every omega there will be an alpha.
  • El Olam, the Eternal God. God has no endings.
  • Endings are not natural to us because we are built for forever.
  • God can take a string of somethings that are awful into a string of somethings wonderful. Only God can redeem a tragedy into a string of deliverance.
  • There is nothing that Satan can deal me that God cannot trump!
  • When God blesses us; we then become blessings for/to others.
I've talked often about feeling homeless, not having roots, not having a place to call home.

Today, thank you God, the message I received today in the final chapter of the Patriachs study helped me understand the longing for stability, longing for closure.

Hebrews 11:13-16.  Like the scripture, I admit that I've felt like a foreigner and stranger here in Mississippi just as well as in Maryland. I have said that I am looking, longing for a resting place of my own. I haven't thought about the Baltimore that I had left and have had opportunity to return. Instead, I long for a better place —Now, I understand the feeling is not depression but a longing for a heavenly one. As scripture states, I don't necessary need a building but I went to be where God wants me to be, as long as He is going to be there with me. I'll never be alone for God is with me.

I've prayed the Prayer of Jabaz for years. In response, God has place me in the middle of many "expanding territories".

I have often wonder about the events of my life wondering as many do.... "Why me God?" Genesis 50:20. God, use what has happened in my life, that You have redeemed, to speak to someone else's deliverance.

Thank you God for not being ashamed to be called my God, for You have prepared a place for me.

Thank you with all my life,
Yo
