We Are In God’s Hand

Ξ July 6th, 2008 | → | ∇ Music, Video |

Sometimes, it’s pretty tough believing that we are in the hand of God, isn’t it? With all the junk going on in the world right now, there are times when I have thought that I haven’t heard from God and that I had gone off the path. And that was true at times. But there were other times when God was right there, I wasn’t off the path a bit and He was guiding me just as He said He would.

Kris Kristofferson wrote a beautiful song called “Why Me, Lord?” that says everything I always wanted to ask the Lord. Why me? What have I ever done to deserve even one of the blessings from You? God says that we are given a gift of eternal life. It wasn’t earned. It is not deserved. But He loves us so much that He gave it to us but it was paid with a price. Jesus went to the cross to give His life for ours. That answers the question. But the song also asks what I can do to give back to the Lord. And that is what we need to find out today. What can I do to give back to You, Lord? Show me the way.

Bob Cain has gone to be with the Lord but his legacy of songs are still here. Bob Cain singing “Why Me, Lord?” as only Bob Cain can:

   The best thing that we can do to reciprocate God’s most valuable gift to us, which is eternal life, is to live in order to please God and give glory to His name. Thanks for the wonderful post. God bless.

      Thank you, Mel. I agree with you totally. We must live our lives to please God. Sometimes with the world being the way it is, that’s kind of hard to do. But if it was impossible, God would not have us doing it.

      Thanks for your return visits.
