Reflections:

Father GOD, thank You for letting me be able to tell the difference between the real from the fake. Even when things look alike, there is something that is different from the other. I realize that in life that everything serves a purpose. That’s just like for sugar. Sugar is used to sweeten, to add to coffee. You can’t use salt and put it in coffee. I know now that some things may seem one way, seem to be the real thing or the wrong person. In life, we have to be careful who we allow in our life. The Bible tells us that the Enemy comes as an angel of light but really is a Wolf in sheep’s clothing. In this world, I'm learning that people will present one thing that seem like and look like it is what they’re saying it is, but it’s not until you get it in your possession and part take of it that you find out that is something different. It's not what it is or look like and it’s not what they said it was. I recognize the difference between facts and fiction. Most of us live our lives based on facts. Some facts are based on actual head knowledge and experience.  Others are grounded in speculation. Truth always unfolds into deeper understanding. Facts are often defended with statistics that support the position being promoted. Truth, which cannot be measured, needs no defense. In our day to day experience of living, we often fail to recognize or understand that  there is a major difference between a fact and the truth. It a fact that salt and sugar look the same. But the truth is the are not and both serve different purposes.  A fact is a temporary condition or situation. The truth is a constant presence. A fact is subject to change or alteration. The truth is immutable. It never changes. A fact can represent the truth, or it can be based solely on speculation. The truth represents the power and the presence of Spirit. Facts stimulate the intellect, Truth opens the heart. A fact begins with a premise that requires more facts to prove a conclusion. The truth is the conclusion, the understanding the difference between an associate and a friend. Loyalty and disloyalty.  A fact can be ignored, resisted or denied. The truth must be reckoned with. You can never trust facts. You can always trust the truth. GOD asks a question in the word, "whose report are you going to believe?" The fact is that most of us live our lives based on facts. But The truth is, until you truly understand that you will not be able to move beyond the influence of facts until you accept truth. Prayerfully this fact will change as you learn to trust that there is a deeper level of truth that exists and is available to you. Accept the truth about what is and what’s not. Until today, you may have accepted certain facts about yourself and/or things in life. But it a false thing appearing to be real. As of today, set an intention to know the truth about everything and situation put before you. Father, I’m asking you for the power of the truth to be revealed to me. Help me to move beyond certain debilitating facts with grace and ease and to embrace the truth. I’m devoted, Father, to operating in truth and living the truth of my life. The word tells us, "we will know the truth and the truth we receive will set us free." We Winning in JESUS!

A Quote by Maya Angelou: 

Jealousy in romance is like salt in food. A little can enhance the savor, but too much can spoil the pleasure and, under certain circumstances, can be life-threatening.

SCRIPTURE: 

1 John 4:1

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Romans 16:17-18 

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve.

Closing prayer: 

Have a blessed Wednesday family, friends and loved ones. Know that JESUS saves and He loves you. When the world leaves you standing alone or turn their backs on you, JESUS is right there. He got your back, your side and front if you stay connected.  Remember today to not be deceived. Let’s get out of the bondage of the past and do something big today for the Kingdom of GOD!  Show love to someone. It can be a word of encouragement, a listen ear, a hug, a helping hand or a phone call to say hello. Whatever we do, do it as unto the LORD. The word says, "give and it will be given back until you, pressed down and running over". We never know how we will reap what we have sown. We winning if we stay connected and start trusting the process. Just know GOD got us no matter what. Whatever you do, just surrender it to the Lord and let Him work it out. Let it be  what it is because no matter what, we are covered in the blood. If you don’t know GOD, get to know Him. Try Him. He is the truth. Whatever the Lord tells you to do, just do it. All we have belongs to GOD. Keep trusting GOD. Just know this, GOD remains the same.  Know that we can count on Him no matter what! May the peace of GOD be with you as you lay down to sleep tonight. I ask all this in JESUS name I pray, Amen. 

JESUS is my Everything
