I am so tired!!!!

I am so tired!!!!

  I am physically and mentally tired.  I am tired of people and their ways. I am even tired of myself. I found myself acting just like the Israelites of long ago. God enabled Moses to lead them out of 400 years of bondage. They saw first hand the almighty powers of God and still they walked the desert with an unbelieving heart. The Israelites in exodus murmured and complained often. They saw things that we can only imagine and still they complained. I know deep down in my heart that God is by my side, but still I tend to get angry and let outside circumstances get the best of me. Like my daughter told me recently" when you learn to not care what people say or think then you will be fine. The thing is people are people. Few care and many don't. The bible says in the last days men's heart will wax cold. It will be a time of mothers against daughters, fathers against sons., your worst enemy will be members of your own household.
 So today I had a discussion with a pastor / mental health specialist. After going over in my head our discussion I have come to this conclusion. Even pastors do not read and pray each day. In order to feel and see the power of God work daily in our lives we all must commit ourselves to reading and praying each and every day. As the word say " We must pray without ceasing. It is easy to understand that humans will think and believe whatever they want to, however it takes a man or woman of God to take a good look at the facts without being bias in order to come to an acceptable and truthful answer to whatever situation or things may be. The discussion I had today told me that when people do not understand something they come up with their own consensus, be it factual or false. Mankind who do not have a true righteous relationship with Christ do not understand the power of God moving in someone else's life. It's as though they are trying to say that the things which happen in your life is not from God. So because they are denying his power you should also deny his power. The bible gives many stories of God protecting his people. Leaders seem to not know this power so they do not teach about the power of God.  I know the power of God and know that me of myself is capable of doing nothing. It is the power of Jesus Christ which has sustained me all my life. I have no power of my own. So do not get the facts twisted. 
 Psalm 121:7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil. He shall preserve thy soul.
  Psalm 4:8 In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone Oh'  Lord will keep me safe. 
  Psalm 91:11 For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go.
  There are many more verses of God protecting those who believe in him. He even protects those who are unbelievers because as he said again, Matthew 5:45 it rains on the just as well as the unjust.
