God knows...

-

 When things are not allowed to happen, it's for our own good.  I don't know what's in my tomorrow, but God does.  And, He has ONLY good & what's BEST for me.  When trials do assail, He promises me that ALL things work together for the good.  That slamming door was obviously a huge NO.  I must trust Him on it.

I must COMPLETELY rely on His guidance & not on MY wants.  "My" ways are not His ways.  "My" thoughts are not His thoughts.  But, I strive daily in growing to have the mind of Christ.  Growing pains, learning curves, attacks from the enemy can be frustrating.  But, if I totally rely on "He who lives within me is greater than he that is within the world", then I will have peace with whatever door closes..... or simply, one that doesn't open.  God knows... period.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of "truth" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior (Eph. 2:8-9) (Rom. 3:23, 6:23, 10:9-10 & 13) (John 3:16), we have the Holy Spirit living in us. He is the Spirit of truth.  One part of this means that... we can know what "truth" is.  There is only ONE truth -- God's truth.  Outside of knowing God... we cannot know truth!  And in order to know God, we must know Jesus. (John 14:6)   >>> (John 14:16-17) - words of Jesus ... "...And I will ask the Father and he will give you another Counselor (Holy Spirit) to be with you forever -- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SO, to know and see the " truth" of what is going on in our world... know Jesus. 💗 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Evil and wants to propagate evil.  It doesn't know anything else, nor want anything else.     So if you want to counter evil, if you want to fight evil, if you want to confuse evil... Rebuke evil with kindness and love. 💗 It won't know what to do with that.  And if anything, you have planted seeds in the heart of evil --- and one day... evil will have to answer for that.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** PROVERBS 15 *** 1A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. 4The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life,...   18A hot-tempered man stirs up dissension, but a patient man calms a quarrel. 28The heart of the righteous weighs its answers, but the mouth of the wicked gushes evil. 30A cheerful look brings joy to the heart, and good news gives health to the bones. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 💗 Plant seeds of kindness and love 💗 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #evil #rebukeevil #kindness #love #combatevil #speak #speaklove #speakkindness #heart #loveo
