"It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it.
If you think about that, you’ll do things differently."

- Psalm 61:2
From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
Psalm 61:1-3- Psalm 143:4
Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
Psalm 143:3-5
We live in a time when people are faint at heart and at times , they feel overwhelmed by the issues of life, some are stressed out with anxiety, turning to prescription drugs, alcohol or street drugs just to cope with the issues of life.
Then there is another remnant that are suffering in silence, that just feel so rejected and neglected , they have just closed them selves off and become withdrawn, that they end up on forgotten man street, a street that goes to the point of no return…..
As I was on my way to work today , I saw a woman pushing a grocery cart with all her precious few belongings in it…..
As I passed under a bridge , I looked up and saw in the creases or crevices of the bridge someone’s clothes , they ‘d left there for safe keeping…can you imagine , someone walking up the slant wall under a bridge just to safely store his belongings?
and another sight I saw was young and older ladies, walking the streets soliciting, looking for a “ John “ to pay for their services.
My heart just felt overwhelmed, that there are people homeless on the streets living like this, caused maybe directly or indirectly through economic so, poor job market, fell behind in their bills, released from prison and can’t fit back in with society, relationship break up, divorce , or death of a love one, drugs , alcohol, mental illness, or depression.
What ever the need , they are overwhelmed and going through, it is our responsibility to start caring for our own,
The world has already kicked them, they have kicked themselves, yet we must make and show a difference , don’t preach the love of Jesus to a brother or sister without meeting their basic need of hunger, shower and clean clothes,
Meet a man where they are, then you can lead them to the Love
0f Jesus Christ!
The world that is over whelmed right now and looking for answers in things like ( NWO ) new world order , end time reports of 2012 and problems with the sun ) ,
just looking and grasping at answers in all different directions, there are many paths that lead to many different directions, eventually all roads led to Jesus Christ ,
Every man , woman, boy or girl will have to make a choice as to where they will spend eternity, they will meet Jesus Christ , the Word says after death, the judgment !
Next time you ride in your car and see a homeless person who is looking overwhelmed or despondent, help them if you can, ( please be wise , and safe , using good judgment and common sense ) He that wins souls is wise .
If you don’t feel comfortable reaching out one on one, no problem, that is completely alright there are many people that assist the furtherance of the gospel , behind the scenes.
So rather than do nothing , Please pray …..for the homeless, for that matter pray for everyone, we are all overwhelmed at some point in life,
the difference is some of us know where to go when our heart is overwhelmed ! To the Rock that is higher than I , that Rock is Jesus Christ!

As I rode on the plane recently from Phoenix, Arizona on my way back home from a 7 day vacation visiting family members.
As I look out of the passenger window seat, I was amazed at His awesomeness and grace, the Lord is awesome and full of grace and mercy to even let the world's technology to even penetrate and cut through the skies at an incredible rate of speed, carrying on a 945 Boeing about over 100 passengers safe and sound!
The Word of God says:
1. Psalm 20:7
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
2. Isaiah 31:1- 3
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!
Even as we endured heavy rains and storms , we also endured countless unbelievable stomach wrenching turbulence, yet some continued without question to trust the Pilot and the Stewardess, I prayed and continued to put my trust in the Lord!
The Maker of the heavens and the earth, the Word also says the Earth is the Lord and the fullness. Thereof, even the Airtran plane belonged to God!
In the OT , the people were in unity and started building the tower of babel to go met God, You see even thou their intent was good and they were on one accord, we still can not approach God any old kind of way!
We must have the heart that says like the song writer wrote ....to God with humbleness and humility,
" Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down, here I am to say that you're my God ......."
So because of this, the hearts of the people not being a worthy enough atonement for the sins of mankind, Jesus became the sacrificial lamb , one and for all!
Now we can fly in planes above the clouds, we can even send a spaceship to the moon! All because of Gods permissive will !
So the next time you board a plane to take a flight, as you look out the window and see the world as dots and specks,and the houses and cars start looking like toys on a monpoly game board.
the more altitude the plane gains as it climbs upward, and upward, don't forget to say a prayer and tell the Lord thank you for traveling mercies ! Then lay your seat in a comfortable reclined position , close your eyes and rest ,
without fear and hum this simple song ......boldly with humbleness, confidence and humility,.......putting and casting all your fears , concerns and anxiety on Jesus Christ!
" Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down, .......here I am to say that you're my God! ..."

Positively frustrated
This is a blast from the past, this was written originally 04/18 /2009 , little did I know that one year later from writing this, the country's recession effects would affect us more and more, now it's hitting closer and closer to home.
... At my job as a pharmacy technician, the hours has gone over the years from 40 hours to now 32 hours a week, and the forecast is gloomy and gloomy, the customers are more impatient, due to shorten work staff.
The complaints from Jane and John Doe have increased more and more, I received a write up just a week ago, due to a customer compliant.
" So Sorry , the only miracle worker , I know is Jesus Christ.
" Yet I stand resolved, no matter what comes or goes, I will continue to stand on the Word of God ,
Jesus will supply all my needs ! " It is Written ! "
We live in a time, when we are asked to do more with less, in the bible days, Pharaoh was so vindictive, and controlling. Shown by his stubbornness and hardness of heart in refusing to let the children of Israel go free. They were not the property of Pharaoh, no man or woman is the property of another, we can properly put things in perspective, yet we are called to exhibit the love of Christ in the earth.
Pharoah was so self absorbed in wanting to build up his kingdom and not God's kingdom he made many fatal mistakes, one being he used the backs of human being to further His agenda at any and all costs.
I thank God that He heard the faithful, continual prayers of His people. Thus raising up a Moses to be the Deliverer.
In the times of Goliath wanting to be big and bad usurping his authority over the people,(ISamuel 17 chapter)
God raised up a Shepherd boy name David with a simple sling shot and five (5) stones, backed by a strong faith that was perfected while he tended the sheep in the hills.
So in these times when your jobs are cutting back, you are being asked to do more with less, when you have to make the choice of food, gas for your car or medications.
In these troubled times the rising cost of school, clothing, shoes, childcare, medical bills, utility bills, apartments, homes, cars even bus and subway tokens have increased.
No one is exempt we will all feel or even see the effects of this economy at some point in our life. ( don't kid yourself, you will find out who your true friends are when times get tough, the fake friends will be gone and just a few faithful friends will be there to help encourage, inspire, and motive you ! )
As long as you have Jesus and His Favor, you have all you need to begin again. Don't trust in your money, trust in God! ( He doesn't lose any interest, like the bank )
So the next time you are asked to make bricks with no straw, or rather asked to do more with less, remember this principle, storm Heaven with your prayers, for we have a proven Deliverer his name is Jesus, trust him, He will make your burdens lighter.
May you continue to be blessed from the Well!
Haggai ministry had one main ajenda and focus : urging God’s people to be obedient, especially in rebuilding the Temple. They were more concerned with building up and decorating, lavishly their own houses while the House of God laid in waste .
.We must be careful to not be so busy making a living and missing out on the real focus ….God , Wife and Family,& the House of God….
We must get our priorities straight, All that you own or possess is nothing but empty things without God…..
Haggai is a short book of the Bible only 2 chapters, join me as we take a look at Brother Haggai,
one of the old Testament Prophets as He begins his quest to motivate the people to hear the Word of the Lord , and rebuild the House of God.
“ The Appeal to Rebuild the Temple “
Haggai 1
1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
2 Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the Lord's house should be built.
3 Then came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your ceiled houses, and this house lie waste?
5 Now therefore thus smith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.
6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages, earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.
8 Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the Lord.
9 Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
10 Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
11 And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands.
12 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the Lord their God had sent him, and the people did fear before the Lord.
13 Then spake Haggai the Lord's messenger in the Lord's message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith the Lord.
14 And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the Lord of hosts, their God.
15 In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
‘‘ God’s Glory, Shown Through the Act of Obedience, will Again Fill the Temple.’’
Haggai 2
1 In the seventh month , in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the Lord by the prophet Haggai, saying,s
2 Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
3 Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?
4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and work: for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts:
5 According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.
6 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land ;
7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.
8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the Lord of hosts.
9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the Lord of hosts.
10 In the four and twentieth day of the ninth month , in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
12 If one bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
13 Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean by a dead body touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean.
14 Then answered Haggai, and said, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord; and so is every work of their hands; and that which they offer there is unclean.
15 And now, I pray you, consider from this day and upward, from before a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the Lord:
16 Since those days were, when one came to an heap of twenty measures , there were but ten: when one came to the press fat for to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.
17 I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labours of your hands; yet ye turned not to me, saith the Lord.
18 Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid, consider it .
19 Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless you .
20 And again the word of the Lord came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,
21 Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;
22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.
23 In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the Lord, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the Lord of hosts.
Praise the Lord, you have just read the entire book of Haggai from the Old Testament, May God bless you richly as you continue to uncover the mysteries in His Word!
