He's gonna getcha good, too!

I'm writing today because well, maybe you've been there (or I should say... here) too!

I woke up not wanting to do my Bible study. I did it halfway, but wasn't in the right frame of mind. I decided it's been too long since I worked out, so needed to get some exercise first. I couldn't decide if I should take a run, go for a walk, go to yoga, take a bike ride? Finally I decided to go down to my basement, in my sanctuary on my elliptical machine. I needed to sweat. What to listen to on my iPod? I wasn't in the mood for any of my Christian music. Didn't want any part of it. None. (Just being honest.)

When this song came on I couldn't help but laugh. All alone, in my basement. I tried to escape Him, but He made me hear this one. He was singing to me!


I came upstairs and cracked open my brand new Key Word Study Bible and this verse came to mind...

"Be strong and courageous... for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." (Deuteronomy 31:6)

I looked up the word "forsake" and this is what it means... "to leave, abandon, reject, desert: be left, be abandoned, be freed, be neglected." He won't let me go, even if I try to leave Him! NEVER!

Don't be as stupid as me. Don't even try to run!
Now I'm going to do a head stand... while smiling... then get on with my day!
Have a good one!
Love,
Angie

p.s. Thank You, Lord!

Isn't it great how God 'gets us'? I think I've been on the run for awhile and I'm about ready to crash!

Bless you,

What is the best job I've ever had?
