Hi all,
While we are instructed to pray, share
the gospel, to disciple the young ‘uns, to encourage and
build up one another in Christ especially as the day
draws near, while going through a time of frustration,
the Holy Spirit spoke and reminded me JESUS is the Savior,
not me !
This reminder took a big load off my
shoulders as I had turned into a “Martha”, –working for
the Lord- sometimes it was in the Spirit but most
times, it was in the flesh, I
think. I have pointed and shared the Word of Life,
tried giving them HOPE yet some of my family &
friends, on the surface received the Word only to go
back to their whining, bickering and
complaining...blaming everyone else but themselves for
their problems, to the point of these people draining
the LIFE out of me. No wonder Jesus often prayed
alone without anyone around, especially at night!
Between hoards of people seeking miracles of healing,
wanting answers, attempting to trick Him, Teaching them,
our King Lord Jesus must have experienced Frustration
too! (That is until He shed His Precious Blood on
the cross, died and Resurrected ! Halleluiah for
His Resurrection! )
Finally, I gave up, raised my hands to
the sky, looking up, I said to the Lord “Lord JESUS! YOU
ARE the SAVIOR! Not me!!”
What relief I felt. Of course, I
still pray and share the Word of God as the Lord leads
but most times, I simply say to them “You know
WHO the Savior is already!”
If they’re ready to meet the Lord in the
Air, Halleluiah. If not...I’m not going to stress over their
condition. Me? I
will continue to give Thanks, Glory and Honor with
Praise to our King Jesus! My spirit and soul will
continuously Bless the Name of the LORD. I will
continue to seek HIM and HIS Counsel all the days of my
life. I will continue to say “Come LORD
JESUS. The Spirit and the Bride say “Come”.
Grace & Peace to all my brethren in
Christ Jesus,
Carol Garza
