QUITE OFTEN, WORDS GET STUCK IN MY HEAD. IF I HEAR SOMETHING THAT I LIKE, I SEEM TO THINK ABOUT IT FOREVER. MY GRANDMOTHER HAS OFTEN SAID, "GIRL, YOU HAVE A MEMORY LIKE AN ELEPHANT." I TAKE THAT TO MEAN AN ELEPHANT HAS A GOOD MEMORY, BUT, THATS A DIFFERENT STORY. YESTERDAY, DURING CHURCH SERVICE, MY PASTOR MENTIONED SOMETHING DURING HIS SERMON THAT I REALLY LIKED ALOT. I KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT IT WOULD BE THE TOPIC OF MY "NOTE" THIS MORNING. AS SOON AS HE SPOKE THE WORDS, THE WORDS OF THIS "NOTE" WERE ALREADY FORMING IN MY MIND. THANKS BRO JERRY!
AN OPEN CAN OF COCA COLA DOESNT TAKE LONG TO GO FLAT. WATER BECOMES STAGNANT. BREAD QUICKLY BECOMES STALE. EVEN THE BEST NACHOS GET SOGGY. A GALLON OF MILK WILL SPOIL RATHER FAST. ICE CREAM MELTS, POTATOES ROT, AND MAYONAISE BECOMES RANCID. LEFT OVERS IN THE REFRIGERATOR GROWS MOLD AFTER A WHILE. PAINT CHIPS AND BEAUTY FADES. FRIENDSHIPS COME AND GO. WE ALL KNOW THESE STATEMENTS TO BE TRUE. WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT, NOTHING IS CERTAIN, RELIABLE OR DEPENDABLE AFTER A CERTAIN EXTENT. THERE ARE SO MANY EXAMPLES. IN OUR DAILY LIVES, IN SO MANY WAYS, GOOD THINGS OFTEN GO BAD. IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE!!!
THE ONLY THING WE CAN DEPEND UPON WITH ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY IS THE LOVE OF GOD! HIS WORD WILL NEVER GO FLAT, BECOME STAGNANT, GET STALE, SPOIL OR BECOME RANCID. THE BEAUTY OF HIS LOVE FOR US WILL NEVER FADE. HIS DEVOTION TO US REMAINS CONSTANT. HIS WORD HAS REMAINED TRUE AND HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME. HE BROUGHT ISREAL OUT OF BONDAGE AND HE DOES THE SAME FOR US TODAY. HE TURNED JOB'S TEST INTO A MIGHTY TESTIMONY, JUST LIKE HE DOES OURS. IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, JESUS FED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AND IS STILL DOING THE SAME IN 2011. THE PROMISES OF GOD WERE FULFILLED THROUGHOUT THE BIBLE. THOSE SAME PROMISES ARE BEING FULFILLED THROUGHOUT THE WORLD AT THIS VERY MOMENT.
I COULD GO ON AND ON THIS MORNING! I WOKE UP REFRESHED, REVITALIZED AND READY TO PRAISE THE LORD TODAY! GOD TRULY IS OUR ROCK, OUR SHIELD AND OUR DELIVERER! HIS LOVE FOR US IS ETERNAL! TODAY IS A BEAUTIFUL DAY TO THANK HIM FOR HIS UNCHANGING LOVE!
HEBREWS 13:8 JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER
THANKS FOR READING MY "NOTE"
