To The Rescue

Tell everyone who is discouraged, be strong and don't be afraid! God is coming to your rescue.

Isaiah 35:4

 

As I am writing this, Vivaldi is playing on my phone.  I love classical music.  It rescues my mind from the stresses, frustrations, anxieties, and the general uneasiness of daily life.  It's an incredible feeling to be rescued.  As a matter of fact, one of my favorite teacher is our rescue dog Woodybear.  He knows exactly how to rescue me from myself.  When I am stressed, he puts his chin on the arm of my chair so I'll focus on him and rub him.  When he hears the shower come on, he makes a dash to the bathroom and bumps the door open to make sure I'm okay.  Woody teaches me about being grateful for being rescued.

 

Think about this, when you are rescued, are you grateful?  Do you say "Thank You"?  When God rescues you from your situation, which your own decisions got you there, are you thankful?  

 

Have you ever been discouraged?  I mean REALLY discouraged where your only thought is "why bother"?  Guess what, God is coming to the rescue!  When we focus on HIM and give all our situations, all our feelings, all the dramas, all of our everything to Him...He comes to our rescue!  Faith gives us the ability to be strong and to be unafraid, because we KNOW God is our rescuer!!!
