Can God fix it? Yes, He can !!!

Amos 9:11-KJV
In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:
-
The sins and failures of my past weighed heavy on my mind again today. It is clear that Amos 9:11 is prophetic in context, but it is also clear that the God of the Bible is the God of restoration. I can remember well the day at PVBI that Dean McIntire told those of us in his class about a student that had written a paper with words something like... "the door of mercy is still ajar". I think the reason I remember it so well was the way our prof. gesticulated when he said with great emphasis, "the door of mercy is wide open !"
-
Right now I have no idea what to do next - except to acknowlege Him in all my ways, and He will direct my paths. I have to make a conscious effort to give it all to Him.....
-
the words of another David Phelps song.......
-
You don’t say a word,
but I know you’re so afraid
Trying hard to take a step of faith.
You’re so confused
and you’re so alone
Standing face to face with the unknown.
-
Every need you have
God already knows about it.
Still He longs to hear from you.
I believe if you put your trust in Him
That is where the road of faith begins.
-
(Chorus)
'Cause if His eye is on the sparrow
when it comes to me and you
There is no place He won’t go
And nothing He won’t do.
Like a mother cradles a child
His grace covers us somehow.
So whatever you go through
God will take care of you.
-
Change is never easy;
it’s just part of living.
There’s so much more that we can see.
A higher place so far above it all
Is ours when we’re faithful to His call.
-
We don’t know,
We don’t have to understand,
The how’s, the why’s, the when’s
Give it all to Him.
-
'Cause if His eye is on the sparrow
when it comes to me and you
There is no place He won’t go
And nothing He won’t do.
Like a mother cradles a child
His grace covers us somehow.
So whatever you go through
God will take care of you.
