Waiting does not mean God is saying no
Life has its ups and downs, and no one is exempt from struggling every now and then.
We’ve heard that how we react to situations is based on how much spiritual peace we can maintain, and I certainly believe this is true.
In order to hear God’s still small voice, we need to be very close to Him. How many have experienced the agony of

From Paradise removed
Genesis 3:24 “So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.”
Genesis chapter three is known as “The Fall of Man” Biblical account of mankind’s fall from the grace of God. The blessings God gave to Adam and Eve were to experience a paradise and live without encumbrance forever.
Genesis 3:3 “But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.” Many interpret “lest ye die” as meaning that before Eve partook of the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, she and Adam were created eternal.

This means that 76 million Social Security recipients will

Wake up, get up, speak up
Jonah 1:5 “Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god, and cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it of
them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.”
My uncle once said “I do my best worrying in the middle of the night.” Supposing it runs in the family to make light of unpleasant situations, dealing with memories can be good or bad.
At some point in time, I realized, when I wake up at two am and fully know I’m not going back to sleep, the best recourse is to get up and do something.
Going to the shop it’s easy to find jobs I didn’t finish yesterday or new tasks
