Sure looking forward to that time when our work here has ended and we are with Him forever.

YES THEY ARE .   and swollen fat bellies on every word of our LORD do they have .     For everything that comes FROM GOD , is such a wonderous sweet tasting soul food .

I asked the Lord for wisdom before reading some passages and this spoke to me. When we are anxious, afraid, worried about something specific, or non specific, the Lord is strenuous in saying to us that it is HIS job to comfort us. Run to Him first, and talk to Him about your cares, and HE will comfort us. He knows just what to say to us, because He knows us even better than we do.

exactly .    one thing , wait two things I know for sure  .   Number one .  man can hate us ,  curse us ,  afflict us , put us in prison , even kill us ,  BUT GOD IS always in control

and HE will give us all consolation through whatever comes against us .

Number two ,  Again GOD is in control .    AND ONLY HE can destroy both body and soul in hell fire .  SO , IF WE HAVE JESUS and love HIM ,     We got our ticket out of that place .

AND WE HAVE ALL HOPE , because of WHAT HE DID FOR US .    

So while its true that man can do us much harm ,    ITS TRUE GOD WILL ALWAYS BE WITH US and no matter what we suffer even sickness wise , HE IS WITH US

and SHALL BE WITH US .    ALL who hold their hope IN HIM FIRM TO THE END ,   THEY WERE HIS LAMBS .

And their END IS GOOD .    

ALL I HEAR IS A TOTAL PRAISE FEST TO THE LORD that needs to get sung and we continue ON IN HIM , by the power of HIS GRACE , HEEDING and OBEYING the author of our faith to the end .

~"He has besieged me and surrounded me with bitterness and WOE.

 He has set me in places like the dead of long AGO.

 He has hedged me in so that I cannot get OUT;

 He has made my chain heavy.

 even when i cry and SHOUT, 

 He shuts out my prayer."

{Lamentations 3:5-8}

Guess you can tell why i have those words in CAPS, and even though this is the New KJV, I just thought it was pretty cool how these words ryhme, whether it was done intentionally or just by accident? Even verse 12 does also but it was a bit too far down to continue. Another reason i chose this passage was simply because i have also sometimes felt like this before when it was like God chastising me for sin(s) i had committed, even though i no doubt deserved it. And this also sounds very similar to King David's experiences even though this was Jeremiah speaking here.

Of course lamentation is in rhyme since its written in poetry as does the above two verses. Poetry speaks to the heart. That's why its so cool.

@CaptWalker As someone who writes poetry, I wholeheartedly agree. Thanks for pointing out those scriptures (Lamentations 3:5-8)

@Worship Warriors Isaiah 53:6...another good example!

Yes, it does. And it is definitely cool, imo.

God graciously gave me the gift of writing poetry back when I was age 11. (I did it on and off over the years. While raising a family, I was usually too busy.)

The Lord got me back into it full swing last year at Worthy through the encouragement of my brothers and sisters here. Thanks, all.
