The hummingbird was sleeping in
When mother shook his wing
Wake up John it’s time for class
I heard the school bell ring!
He opened first one tiny eye
Then peeked out of the nest
He knew the day for flying lessons
What was his mom planned next
So out the door with trembling heart
John’s wings began to beat
Then up into the wind He flew
To lessons down the street!
But this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14 KJV

So Much More!
Much more was the grace
That cried Father forgive
On that long ago dark afternoon
When with His last strength our Lord Jesus cried out
These people know not what they do
First was Judas who sold His Lord out
And there was Pilate who bowed to the crowd
And Herod who mocked Him and had him bound
And the High Priests who rejected His word
And the throng who were shouting “Crucify Him!”
Then the soldiers who nailed Him hard to the wood
And one thief who still refused to believe
And the one whose spear drew His last blood
These all were His enemies much more forgiven
But there is one more I finally found
That guy was the man who ran from God’s love
Till His grace so much more tracked me down!
For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. Romans 5:10 ESV

Lots of us have heard famous speakers talk about suffering from the pulpits of mega churches, but don’t see how it connects to our own lives. But the testimony of the Mullett family is as down to earth and as real as it gets. I am posting part five here tonight believing that there is someone else besides me who is going through a life altering time of difficulty, grief or confusion. The good news for all of us is that God is also as real as it gets and I am so thankful that He walks by our side through every moment of our lives!
As we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18 ESV
