It’s Never Too Late…

I am a type-A personality with a mild mix of OCD! I can wind myself up faster than the Tasmanian devil and do just as much destruction…

I can get ideas, situations, current issues, basic life stuck in my head and the soundtrack gets played on repeat to the point of serious distraction.

Take this morning for example; at some point, my brain decided I should have my devotions written and posted no later than 8:30 a.m.!!! Where this unwritten rule came from I have no idea but I woke up this morning at 8:00 a.m.!!! Great, I’ve missed my window! Now, What?

2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV “We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to God.”

So, I demolished arguments and pretension!!! It’s never to late to share the word and love of God! I am retired and for the most part don’t punch a time clock, so there’s 24 hours in today…plenty of time to write! Okay, so what, it’s 9:00 a.m. write!!!

Are your thoughts a mess? Is your world a mess? Is your body a mess? Are your habits a mess? Too many wrong decisions! Too many wrong paths! Too many mistakes and failures! Too far gone!!! Are these thoughts you may need to make obedient to God?

Can you still breathe? Are you still alive?

Then it’s never to late!!!

Joel 2:12-13 MSG “But there’s also this, it’s not to late – God’s personal message! – ‘Come back to me and really mean it! Come fasting and weeping, sorry for your sins!’ Change your life, not just your clothes. Come back to God, your God. And here’s why: God is merciful. He takes a deep breath, puts up with a lot, this most patient God, extravagant in love, always ready to cancel catastrophe.”

Ready to cancel catastrophe!!!

I believe the catastrophe God is ready to cancel is the path of destruction we put ourselves on or are on! Turning back to God, or turning to God…puts us within his loving arms of protection. We may still have to clean up our messes but with his grace, mercy, and favor we can get the job done.

1 Peter 5:7 NCV “Give all your worries to him, because he cares about you.” Talk to him, ask for help, deliverance, strength, clarity, and guidance!

Philippians 4:13 NLT “For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.”

I am thankful for the love and word of My God, the peace and salvation from My Lord Jesus Christ, and the promptings of The Holy Spirit leading me, guiding me, and teaching me.

Be blessed today and thank you for joining me. 🥰
