Just Look Behind You



The last few weeks have been crazy! We have been trying to get ready for the opening of the Anderson House of Prayer (AHOP), which is tonight. I will share the link for the latest video at the end of this post. We have also been trying to get everything in order for the East Side Block Party next weekend, and I am a groomsman in a wedding this weekend! I have also been asking God alot of questions lately, and I haven't always gotten answers, or maybe the answers I wanted!
Yesterday, I was driving one of my roommates truck because I needed to get the school supplies over to The LOT Project Building to get ready for the Block Party. Driving his truck is a big change from driving my car. It is a little older, no power windows, locks, air conditioning, or tilt stirring wheel! I don't say any of this to make fun of his truck, but to make a point. You see the picture above is what I saw every time I looked out his rear view mirror, and all I saw was Jesus. At that point God said "Things are changing, but I will always be there right behind you!"
I felt like I should give those who actually read this a little encouragement this morning. Even though things in your life may be changing, may be uncomfortable, and may not be exactly what you expected. Jesus is always right there behind you, and He love you more than you can imagine!

Psalm 118:13 - "I was pushed back and about to fall, but the LORD helped me."

When God doesn't seem to be responding in the time period we would like, remember Job. From chapters 3-31, God did not speak. Job is out of wind, out of hope, out of help, out of health, out of words and has nothing left to say. But God has him right where He wants him. Almighty God was about to speak a word into his life.

When integrity meets adversity, there is often pain. Do not worry; do not grow weary. God is with you in the pain. He knows where you are; He knows your pain. God doesn't ask us to give up something that He hasn't prepared something better with which to replace it.
