Transforming The Valley..
I knew a true saint and woman of God. She was put into a hospital in great pain from cancer. Yet she never complained. There was a head nurse, supervisor, who ran that hospital. She was a very hard woman. Yet she noticed this one patient who just radiated the love of God. She was drawn to her. She would just sit by her bed, wash her and be ministered to by her.
Then the saint of God went home to be with the Lord. The head nurse was totally changed by the presence of this believer who instead of cursing her situation, shone the light of God. We are never to let ourselves be defined by our circumstances.
Before you curse your valley, look around. You might discover the reason you are in that valley is that you need to minister to others in that valley. Be encouraged, transform your problems, revolutionize your situation by the presence of God. In every circumstance, it should end up in some way transformed by the fact that you are in it.
Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. Isaiah 60:1-3
Let the presence of God determine your circumstance. Serve and minister where you are. Be transformed by God, and transform your circumstance.
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always,
Ed
