God Is Here

Come and lay down, the burdens you have carried. For in this sanctuary, God is here. -Martha Munizzi

Nothing has changed, except my attitude about my circumstances. Sunday was one of the most awesome days I have ever experienced at MCCOG, or anywhere for that matter. I knew God was there, I knew He was listening, I knew He cares about my situation. And I know it was real, because it is still with me. After things didn't change (yet), after knowing that I have two funerals to go to for children this week :(, after a leader of our church walked away, after grief about Scott surfaced again and tried to overtake me. I will share with you my version of Sunday morning's sermon, and that will give you an inkling as to why I knew God was speaking to me on Sunday.

I don't have a job....but God is still here.

I can't pay my bills....but God is still here.

My heart is broken....but God is still here.

The world is a mess....but God is still here.

My friend is gone...but God is still here.

A church leader left...but God is still here.

Abby has been very sick...but God is still here.

My friends were in a car accident last week, and they don't know if their vehicle can be fixed....but God is still here.

Gabrielle's baby passed away...but God is still here.

I have lost family members....but God is still here.

---No matter what comes....God is still here. He will never leave us, nor forsake us. He will always be with us. And knowing that, I can make it. Knowing that, I believe my prayers will be answered. He was born on time, He died on time, He was resurrected on time, He will meet my needs on time, and He will return for His bride....ON TIME!
