Highs -n- Lows Living with Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!
We all face adversity.  You learn how good God is when the bottom drops out.  :-)

Today I ride on two truths...
Everything comes from God and
God doesn't give us more than we can handle.

Some know how to walk through adversity...what really makes a difference is our attitude. 
Adversity can be either a burden or a bridge in which we travel, leading us into a closer walk with God. 

The more I go through the more it impacts others lives. God is equipping me to become the person he wants me to be.  I can finally say I am experiencing contentment in the midst of all that is going on.

I am so thankful for all I can do...

Today's Bible Study

Our Firm Foundation
By Charles Stanley
Read | Ephesians 2:1-9

What we believe determines how we will act. To behave in a godly manner, we must embrace biblical truth. So let’s take a look at some basics of the faith:

• Man’s relationship with God is broken, apart from Jesus Christ. When Adam and Eve rebelled, their nature became corrupt and alienated them from God. That “flesh” nature was then passed down to all subsequent generations, separating man from the Father (Rom. 5:12). On our own, we can neither make amends for our sin nor change our nature.

• Salvation comes through Jesus alone (Acts 4:12). God’s justice required a penalty for sin, but only a sacrifice without defect would suffice. Jesus, who lived a perfect life on earth, was uniquely qualified. He bore our sins and died in our place so we might be forgiven and adopted into God’s family. When we receive Him as Savior, we’re given a new nature, and Christ’s righteousness is counted as ours (Phil. 3:9; 2 Cor. 5:17).

• The church—Christ’s body—is made up of born-again believers throughout the world (1 Cor. 12:13). All Christians are commanded to worship the Lord, care for one another, and share in the work of spreading the gospel. God’s followers are also given spiritual gifts to use in building up other believers.

If these truths are the basis for our view of life, we will find ourselves growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. Forgiving others will become a possibility—and dying to self a more common occurrence. Ungodly traits will fade away and be replaced by the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23).

Looking forward to another great day...
