I was fixin some fence the other day, and had a buck antelope watch me all day. I first spotted him layin in some CRP grass, and not very noticeable. I wonder how many times we are watched all day by a pair of eyes that we are totally unaware of. One of the popular hymns of the day has a line in it that goes "My God is real, for I can feel Him in my heart." What happens when you can't feel Him in your heart? Is He real? You will not always feel close to God (Psalms 10:1). Sometimes God seems distant, but He does not change. He never promised that we would always feel his presence, but He has assured us that we will never be forsaken (Job 23:8-12). Can you love, trust, obey and worship God even when you don't sense His presence or see obvious evidence of His working in your life? God's omnipresence is a fact, while manifestation of His presence is more of a feeling. Christians often seek an experience. If they feel an emotional uplift then they have worshiped. Seek not an experience, but strive for Christian maturity. God is more concerned that you trust Him than that you feel Him. Faith, not feelings, pleases God. Never doubt in the dark what God has told you in the light of His word. Have yourselves a great Sunday mornin' and a good rest of the week.
 
AMEN! Trust and obey....for there is no other way! Thanks for the reminder again of the timeless truth... This message hits especially close for me and am going to print it off and keep it on top of the "stuff" that clutters my desk. May God's blessings rest on you, Shortgrass.
 
Thanks for your message, Shortgrass. You have a good Sunday and a great week, too.
 
I'm not religious by any means, but I do believe in God. I see his handiwork every day, even in the smallest things. But most days I believe I am one of the forgotten ones that He looks on every day. Today is one of those days. I'll keep in mind your words Shortgrass, hopefully He'll remember I'm here, and give me something to awe me and inspire me.
 
Thanks Shortgrass! I again enjoyed and appreciate your message.

I hope you have a wonderful Palm (or is it Psalm?) Sunday, and rest of the week.

I look forward to your Good Easter Sunday morning message, next week.

How's your Mom faring? I hope she's getting better!

Cheers---

TTB :wink:
