4 days... its not even close to being over

Do you cry out and ask God why doesn't he fix the situation, struggle or heartache you have in your life? Maybe its your little amount of faith. If you are crying out in pain and yelling to him to fix this Lord - God is saying to YOU - that he doesn't care about your circumstances - He is fixing you. Its about building your faith and your trust in Him with everything in your life. Every detail, every situation and every struggle - Your relationships - Your marriage and Your finances. God is in control of all of this and He has a plan for your life. Putting your trust in Him and having faith in Him - allows God to open the doors and allows God to grow your faith.

Do you believe that Jesus is the eternal life?

I wonder what my mom would say to that question. Look where mom is now and look where we are here. Where would you want to be if you had the choice. Funny thing is - You do have a choice. There are only 2 places to go when our time is up here.... we do have the final answer.

James 11 -
17On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. 18Bethany was less than two miles[a] from Jerusalem, 19and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother. 20When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed at home.
21"Lord," Martha said to Jesus, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask."
25Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; 26and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

Imagine with me for a second - a man dead in the tomb for 4 days. Jesus had raised plenty of folks over His time - but 4 days - Imagine the smell and the shock in everyone when Jesus called out to Lazarus to come out. Lazarus had not just died - there was NO question that he WAS dead. Faith had raised him - it was not over until Jesus said IT WAS OVER.

Looking back I remember the roller coaster that we were all on with mom. Thinking this could be it - mom would rally back - mom again would be down and mom again would rally back. Why do you think that? A spirit is hard to break - especially one who has Jesus with them. There is something to learn during those times loved ones - Its not over until JESUS sais its over. Maybe your struggles right now and your heartache in life is because your choosing to stay where you are. Focus on the Glory of God - What Jesus has given You - how can you stay in your seat and not just run to GOD with pure amazement and awe!! If God has never really got ahold of you and shook you hard - taking mom sure was a big jolt. Mom did not leave 1 second before it was time - or one second later than it was time. Same goes for you - same goes for me. Let God get a hold of you ..... and experience what God has in store. ITS NOT OVER UNTIL JESUS SAYS - Its over. God is fixing YOU - not your problems, your feelings, your struggles - all He wants is you.
4 days is really dead..... but not for Jesus.
