He alone, by himself

My Earring Story, March 9, 2017

Years ago I purchased a set of earrings and one broke shortly after. I really liked them, they where my favorite in color.

I kept them, being tempted to throw them away. But, I thought, I may be able to get them fixed. And so I kept them for years.

On March 9, 2017, I looked for which earrings I could wear and discovered that my favorite, broken earring was fixed!!. Nobody touched them, nobody even knew they where broken. God fixed them for me.

Then coming home from church service that day, I discovered that I had lost one. I was upset, saying: God I cannot believe I lost the earring that you fixed for me. I looked everywhere and could not find it. Then the next day, I found the missing earring in the car in front of the pedals on the floor, clearly visible. So why did I not see them before when I looked twice?

I believe this is the moral to this story: God fixes the broken souls, he finds them even if the get lost again. (The parable of the one lost sheep)

What a miracle He performed for me with these earrings, for me to see His heart's desire toward us. And he takes care what is near to our heart.

And He can do it all by Himself! Yes He wants to use the body of Christ to spread the Good News and to take care of His people. But He can and will do all what is needed by Himself if necessary.

My prayer today: Let us allow You oh God to fix our souls and restore our minds. Even if we fall again and again, save us by Your Mercy oh faithful God.

Allow Him to be what you really need and I say good bye until next time.
