As I was driving today I felt that gentle voice speak to my spirit asking me if I will keep feeding His sheep. I responded yes to Him and at that He told me He will continue to give me the food to feed them with. I was so thankful to hear that. You know the Lord can open and shut doors for you that no man can reverse. I pondered on this as I drove today. A door may be shut or another door may open for you but one thing I know that is always steady and that is the presence of God in your life. A man may close a door to God but He does not shut his door on that person. He remains the same yesterday, today and forever. In my thinking of that I began to be reminded of the many times in which He was present and pronounced in my life and then I began to think of the numerous number of times that He was still there and saved me from a missed accident or two. When I was a child my mother tells me of a story that we were in the convertible car and a construction vehicle hit us, we were spared. As a teenager my mother and my sister and myself were in the inner most lane on the highway and our car just froze and would not start. The only thing my mother knew to do was put on the caution flashers and told my sister and I to brace ourselves because a car was coming and it did not stop and hit us. Again, we were fine. As I write this now I remember another incident in which I was driving my mothers car when I borrowed it in college. I suddenly stopped and a motorcycle crashed into the car no one got hurt and no damage to the car. One more incident in which I just graduated from college and had my new Thunderbird car. My first official car. It was nice it was white and had a white leather interior. I was already working on my very first job out of college. I worked for a public relations firm in which I handled the public relations and their employee magazine for a non-profit organization. I parked in front of their facility and I opened my car door to get out and a bus came along and just missed running me over. I was upset that it damaged my car door in the moment. It was afterward that I realized if it would have been a second or two later it would have been me that was hit.
I am also reminded of this one too. My mother tells me that she went to the hospital 5 times to deliver me. Even though she made the trip four previous times it was not until that fifth visit that I was born. God knew all along and was in control of the very date that I was to be born. That is the God that I serve. How could I not give Him praise. What I shared are the ones I remember. What about the many times I am not even aware of that angels protected me. You know what I am talking about right? When you are driving and all of a sudden at the very right moment the car swerves and you just missed something. Or that time when you felt led to go another route than your normal routine or what the GPS tells you to do. You then find out that there was a pretty big accident that was just ahead of you and you missed it. That's right, that is the kind of thing I am talking about.
One of my children has been blessed throughout their life to be able to see angels. I shared with you one drawing of an angel already. Today, I will share with you another picture drawn as a young child of the angels home in heaven. This child did not have bible knowledge per say or even know of the description of heaven. When you see the picture you judge for yourself it looks like the throne room of God was drawn through the eyes of a child. I love this picture because the angel is wearing a baseball cap that says I love (a heart was drawn) God.
Cultivate your child's gift if they are blessed to see things in the Kingdom of God realm.
