Hurt by a loved One?

...a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand. Isaiah 53:4 (MSG)

We all (in one way or the other) have been hurt by those closed to us, our loved ones.

The pain from a loved ones does hurt more than the pain from a foe because you felt you are safe with your loved ones.

Jesus knew all about pains from loved ones – Peter’s denial, Judas’ betrayal, and the disciples falling asleep during His anguish before His crucifixion (Matthew 26). There are people in the Bible who were well acquainted with people they loved letting them down, such as Joseph or Job.

One bitter truth about life is people will let you down but God won't fail you.

Disappointment feels like a heavy rock sinking to the bottom of my spirit. You may have felt disappointed in many situations – a business opportunity that didn’t pan out, a writing door that didn’t open, and a relationship that broke your young heart.

The heaviest disappointments, however, stem from people. And not just any people; people who are closest to you. People who turn out to be not at all what You hoped they’d be, or not who you thought they were.

When hurt by closed, you can decide to either shut yourself up within or you embrace the painless love of the Father. To err is human.

To those who have been hurt by loved ones, I say to you 'Take heart'. And to those who have hurt loved ones, I say to you 'Apologize for the pains you have caused your loved ones and don't repeat it again'

It's another lovely day, it is Tuesday, it's a beautiful dawn of a beautiful day. May you find love,peace and comfort in the midst of today's pains.

Good Morning and do have a beautiful day!

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive. When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me

Lessons From the Sons of Sceva

....the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? - Acts 19:15 One funny incident that I read in the Bible is about the seven sons of Sceva that attempted to use the Name of Jesus to cast out demons. The demons replied them that He knows Jesus and Paul, but who are they? They were given the beating of their life. (Acts 19:11-16) Were they wrong in using the Name of Jesus? No. But truth is they don't know nor understand that Name. They only want to use it selfishly just to get the results that Paul was getting. They thought it was a rocket science. Many at times we believers are like that; We live in sin , we disobey God and when we need something, we want to perform miracles, do signs and wonders in the Name of Jesus which we really belittle or don't value. Someone once said during a plane turbulence, he saw unbelievers even shouting the name of Jesus. No wonder some folks suffered embarrassment like the sons of Sceva. When
