Day 26: April's Fool


God does not~

Love you.

God is not~

With you.

God can't~

Be trusted.

April Fools!

What a bad April fools joke.

But don't we live like that~

Believing the lies instead of the truth

because what we

See

Feel

&

Experience

Just doesn't match up to

What God says.

Do you take God for His Word, ..all His word

or are you selective to what you want to hear and receive and believe?

What do you question God about?

So what if it was all a trick?

What if God didn't mean what He said and

He was just making fools of us?

But

He did say~

I WILL send my Son

& He DID.

He did say~

He WILL be born in a stable

& He DID.

He did say~

He WILL be crucified

& He DID.

He did say~

He WILL be buried

& He DID.

He did say~

He WILL rise in three days

& HE DID.

He did say

He WILL come again~

&

HE WILL

because

God DID say that HE WILL.

Well..

I would be a fool to not believe what

God Did say

and

then

the joke would be on me.

Just because

what we see doesn't

appear like

God is going to do what He says

doesn't mean

He is playing a trick on us

Because

If you really seek Him

He will be found.

Focus on the 4 dots in the middle of the picture below for 30 seconds, without blinking.

Then look at smooth single color wall (preferably white) and you should see a circle of light.

Blink your eyes a few times.

What do you see?

Things aren't what they appear to be

when your

eyes are fixed on

Him

Who

appeared to be a fool

when

He came to do what God asked Him to do.

So

Let's lose another foolish pound

by

fasting from

being a

fool ~

when you are

feeling, seeing or believing

what God isn't

and

Fix your eyes on the

ONE

Who did

What God said!

*Hmm...you have more time because it is Saturday, so read

What God Said

and

What Did happen....

Isaiah 53

Who has believed our message? To whom has the Lord revealed his powerful arm? 2 My servant grew up in the Lord’s presence like a tender green shoot, like a root in dry ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. 3 He was despised and rejected— a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care.

4 Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows[a] that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! 5 But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. 6 All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all.

7 He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. 8 Unjustly condemned, he was led away.[b] No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream.[c] But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. 9 He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave.

10 But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. 11 When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. 12 I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.
