I'm going to do that from now on. Somewhere I'm going to put " Deep Thought (s). You just never know where it's going to pop up! Now, the goal is to remember to do that. right? LOL
I'm going to use this Bible story. I believe I've shared the story with you guys before.It's the Bible story of The Bleeding woman. Basically, there was this common woman who sadly had been bleeding for years. She had the right mindset by wanting to stop bleeding. Her story and her actions influenced people back then thousands of years ago to now thousands of years later.
There were a lot of people crowding around Jesus and waiting for him to speak to them because they wanted to be healed.
This Woman's Faith was so strong. She told herself if she could just touch the cloak of Jesus then she would be healed. Now, are you guys starting to remember a little?..... Alright fine you twisted my arm far enough! I will tell you the rest of the story. Lol

So, the woman was thinking and told herself that if she can just touch the garment of Jesus, she would stop bleeding. As soon as she did that. Jesus felt power come out of him. He stopped what he was we adoing and said, "who touched me?" The disciples said everyone is touching you. And, Jesus said, no someone touched me! Jesus felt power come out of him.
The woman made herself known. I'm thinking she fell at the feet of Jesus was probably scared.
Now, I want to look back to what I have in my title for today's writing.First of all, I would just like to say isn't her story so encouraging? It should be! It happened so that she would be healedd, yes. But it also happened, I think, so that we would be encouraged!
Now my question for you guys and for Sam is this. Are we putting action (s) to our faith. I really don't think we are being fair with God! I think little by little his heart is breaking probably every day. Maybe every second?
Personally, I'm trying to do my part as a daughter of Christ. and I tried to do what I feel the Lord wants me to do. More specifically, this whole blog of mine. I'm pretty sure Jesus likes what I'm doing. After all I'm just an empty vessel the Lord Jesus is using so he can get his words out to people. And, hopefully result in having a belief in him!
Can you imagine how he feels about people who are not Christians. His heart is probably breaking when he sees one of his creations not even believe in him? I really do think that his heart is breaking. And, we should be mindful of what is breaking our hearts. Yes, we do need to feel the Broken Heart so we can feel a little how God feels. So, maybe we will empathize. Maybe that will change your life decision?
Before I submit this writing I just want to give a shout out to Marilyn! Thank you for opening up my wrapper so I can eat my biscotti this morning. I pray you will be encouraged by the writings. Have a great day!
