Your Grass Is Also Green!

Good Morning,
On this day, January 31, this email comes to minister to you. Happy Tuesday! How are you doing this morning? Its a wonderful day to be a child of God. Have you ever wondered why God continues to use you, even though He knows you have the potential to ruin everything? Have you ever wondered what God sees in you that sometimes you do not see in yourself? Have you ever wondered why God refuses to give up on you, even when you desire to give up on yourself? Have you ever wondered why God continues to make a way of escape for you, even though you continue to put yourself in compromising situations? So often in our lives, we lose sight of the true love God has for us. Sometimes we confuse God's love for us with man's love for us. While man may love you, its all conditional. However, God's love for us is unconditional (no matter what condition you are in , He still loves you.)

This morning, I have been commissioned to come and minister to you. Do you realize there are people who idolize your life? They see the car you drive, the home you reside in, the clothes you wear, the salary you make, the spouse on your arm and they want the same thing. Little do they know, everything that appears good is not always good. Be careful not to covet your neighbor's house. On the outside, their home may appear better than yours but within it may be a den of thieves. My friend, Your Grass Is Also Green! For some reason we have this false belief that someone else has something better than us. Just because their grass appears greener than yours, does not mean your grass is dead ... it just needs more water. The Bible declares in Philippians 4:6 - Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

My brother, my sister, this morning's devotional is not designed to confuse you. To the contrary, it is designed to make you realize what you have is a blessing. Sometimes we become so consumed with what "so and so" has until we forget what we have is also a blessing. Stop living your life through or by someone else. What God gave you is just as important as what He gave the next person. Beloved, Your Grass Is Also Green! The Bible declares in Romans 2:11 - For there is no respect of persons with God. As today unfolds, take the time you evaluate all the many things God has entrusted to you. Think about the things you begged for and received. Think about the things you wanted so bad and now you complain about. Allow me to ask you, has the blessing lost its importance or have you lost yours?

Scripture Reading for Today: 2 Corinthians 1:20

May God Bless you at Your point of need!

To God Be The Glory!!
