God Is

Praise the Lord O my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name. Praise the Lord O my soul, and forget not all His benefits-- who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems you from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagles. Psalms103:1-5

God is: How do we picture God? As we were recording a radio program for Circle of Friends the subject of our personal perception of God as a child. It amazed me that we all had different ideas of what we thought of God, and why.

Our backgrounds had such a major effect of our views. One had the thoughts of God shaking His finger at her, one thought that God was expecting perfection, another had a drill sergeant view, yet I felt that I needed to hide in the corner, and keep quiet then I would not get into trouble.

What is your view of God? Do you see Him as someone to big to approach? Or someone that doesn't really care?

God is here, we are not waiting for Him, we are waiting for something, an answer, a leading, a direction.But God is always here! He never leaves or sleeps, or even turns his back. He is and we are a part of Him. We can be used by God, we can be His feet or his hands.

This is truth! Going from who we thought God was to who we think God is now!

So who do you think God is? What is in your heart? Are you struggling? Are you believing lies? You need to stand firm on His promises!

Lord, open the eyes of my heart so that I may see You and all that You are! Amen
