Wherefore He is ABLE(powerful to...) to save(protect, heal, make whole) them to the uttermost(all, completion, result, purpose) that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth (lives, thrives) to make intersession(God's will, purpose, thoughts, counsel, deliberation) for them. Hebrews 7:25
My faith is being utilized today! I am a teary mess having thoughts of a friend who has her 5 year old baby placed at the foot of the cross; a situation she has no control over. She must trust that human hands, thoughts, and decisions are being over powered by God's all knowing presence and power. As I ponder Hebrews 7:25, I am reassured that nothing that comes our way is not haphazardly thrown our direction from "the big guy" who is just waiting to see us 'dance' for him. Everything in our lives is talked about and thought about with deliberation and purpose. God and His Son have thoughts for you and for me. Jesus lives to talk about you and to love you. It is when we have no power that we gain ALL power from Christ who is able. He has power to...whatever! That whatever is so comforting. In Luke 22, Satan asked for all the disciples but Christ only allowed him to sift like wheat Simon Peter. But Christ prayed for Peter and utilized his sifting to help others.
I am so torn up about the pain but know that God's purpose will prevail. Maybe not to my understanding on this side of heaven BUT to His glory when Christ reigns Victory!
You know like in that song maybe today tears are tomorrows blessing! Just saying....
HE thinks about me. He talks to God about me. There is purpose to everyting!
