WHEN GOD MADE MAN, HE GOT DOWN IN THE DIRT AND FORMED HIM WITH HIS HANDS. SCRIPTURE REMINDS US IN PSALMS 8:4-8 THAT GOD IS MINDFUL OF US AND THAT HE CARES FOR US. THAT LETS ME KNOW THAT THERE IS NO MESS THAT I CAN'T BRING TO MY MAKER. GOD IS USING THE DIRT IN MY LIFE TO MINISTER TO OTHERS. HE CAN DO THE SAME WITH YOURS, IF YOU LET HIM. ALL OUR LIVES BECOME MESSY, BUT GOD WANTS US TO REMEMBER WE ARE CREATED IN HIS IMAGE. TAKE YOUR MESS, PUT IT IN THE HANDS OF THE FATHER AND ALLOW HIM TO PAINT A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE. IT MAY TAKE A WHILE, BUT LET THE ARTIST DO WHAT HE DOES BEST AND CREATE A MASTERPIECE OUT OF YOUR LIFE. JEREMIAH 31:3 SAYS THAT GOD LOVES US WITH AN EVERLASTING LOVE AND THAT HE DRAWS US WITH AN UNFAILING KINDNESS.
I WROTE A SONG A FEW YEARS AGO. THE LYRICS REALLY MINISTERED TO MY LIFE IN THE MOMENT. AS I AM REMINDED OF THOSE WORDS, MY SOUL IS BLESSED ALL OVER AGAIN. I WOULD NOW LIKE TO SHARE SOME OF THOSE WORDS WITH YOU:"WHEN MY LIFE WAS A MESS, YOU CAME TO RESCUE ME. MY SOUL WAS HEAVY AND I BARELY COULD BREATHE. I WAS FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE WITH THE ENEMY. MY FAITH WAS GONE. IT HAD RUN DRY, BUT I KNEW SOMEHOW IF I COULD LOOK UP TO THE SKY, MY REDEMPTION WAS DRAWING CLOSER, MY REDEMPTION WAS DRAWING NEAR, IF GOD IS BEFORE ME, WHAT CAN STAND AGAINST ME, IN WHOM SHALL I FEAR?" ALTHOUGH THOSE WERE NOT THE ONLY WORDS TO THE SONG, IT WAS ENOUGH FOR MY SOUL TO REJOICE. OUR MESSES OUR NOT FINAL. GOD CAN TURN EACH ONE INTO A MESSAGE. TODAY DEAR FRIEND, MY PRAYER IS THAT YOU WILL REMEMBER WHENEVER YOUR LIFE IS A MESS, YOU CAN GO INTO THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD AND ALLOW HIM TO RESCUE YOU.
