MOMENTS WITH GOD Through the years I have learned to "keep looking up" when sorrow or heartache comes to knock on my door. The following photos are my "Moments with God." Since we all share the sky above, God has given you these moments to share with Him, too. I believe it is His way to show all of us that He continues to be there the times are hearts are hurting. Anytime you are suffering after the loss of a loved one or any other heartache, stop what you are doing and look up. Let God show you that He is there with you. It may be a morning sunrise or evening sunset or maybe a bird singing a song for you. Watch for the subtle messages God sends to you and for you. God loves you. Remember to "keep looking up!" ***************************************************************************************** This picture was one of the last snowfall here in Minnesota. As I was walking to the garage, I saw the new tire tracks in the snow as they went around the tree. It made me stop and think of all the times in my life I thought I knew where was going but then all of a sudden God would put a turn on my road of life that took me somewhere else. Just like the photo, I learned to trust what I cannot see because God said He is with us always. Wherever God has placed you today, please know that you are exactly where you are meant to be. Enjoy your "Moment with God" and see what blessing awaits! I love the morning sunrise especially when I am on my way to work. There are days I start stressing out because of all the work that awaits me when I arrive but then God sends me a reminder of His presence. I am so thankful to be able to see and have a "Moment with God". He reminds me that He gave me a job so I can share the blessings He has given me and also pay my bills so I can live. Take 5 minutes out of your busy schedule and write down how many blessing you have been given at this very minute.   The photo below shows the moon coming up over some trees in a nearby park. I believe God was reminding me how during the darkest times in my life, that He had been there and was at this time, as well. This night I really needed a "Moment with God." A relationship I had been in for 3 1/2 years had come to an end and I was feeling so alone. It was one of those types of pain that you think will never go away but it does when you give it up to God. If I think about it now, it still hurts but I choose to remember the good times only. I also am now able to see why I was lead through the pain and what blessings have come out of it. Some of you will understand what I mean. For those that don't, why not give it up to God? My friend, Roger, from work sent me this photo with "3" of his precious grandkids. From left to right….Jack age 1, Cody age 2 ½, Caeden age 3 ½. Even children have their own "Moments with God!" ******************************** Every few weeks I will post "4" more photos of my "Moments with God" and tell you a little bit about each one. Please come back and let me share them with you. The great thing about God's earth is that we can share some of the same moments as friends but with different views and times. Chances are we will never meet face to face, but please know that you are not alone in your sorrw. God and I are here. Keep looking up and don't forget to watch for your own - "Moments with God."  ****************************** No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him. 1 Corinthians 2:9
