Only God

AyandaI am just sitting here looking out my sliding glass doors. The Lord’s beauty just overwhelmed me and my thought was ONLY GOD. The sky is clear blue, and the trees are very still and beautiful. The birds are chirping; the sun is not out; this morning is so peaceful. Just to see God’s creation is so wonderful! ONLY GOD!
I began thinking how only God could have brought me through this last illness. ONLY GOD! ONLY GOD! ONLY GOD! Two months ago, I could not even get out of bed or a chair. My muscles had totally collapsed, and my mind was so confused trying to deal with the new problems. My faith had not wavered, but I was having a difficult time accepting the immobility that besieged my body. ONLY GOD!
Satan was at his post, working very hard trying to put my faith done. As I lay in bed one evening, he began attacking me saying, “Where is your God? You are alone and cannot get out of bed. Where is he?”
I did not know what to do. I was hysterical. Satan was laughing and asked, “Where is the God you serve?”
Immediately, I realized that Satan was at his prime job of trying to make me deny God and follow him. I was totally embarrassed. The thoughts had caused me to become disoriented. I rebuked Satan, dried my tears, and looked up to God. My thoughts turned to Jesus, my Savior, because I knew He was the only one that could pull me through these tumultuous times. ONLY GOD! ONLY GOD!
While sitting here, I am reminded of GOD’S AMAZING GRACE. I see His GRACE working with me everyday. Only God could have pulled me through this illness. I did not have to do anything, but be still and know HE IS GOD. I can get out of bed and a chair by my own volition. ONLY GOD! I can walk better and have more mobility than I have had in the last two months. ONLY GOD! Everyday I am getting stronger and stronger. My face, hands, body, and skin are like new! ONLY GOD! God is still molding this body into a vessel to be used for Him. I am astonished at GOD’S AMAZING GRACE!

    This is very strong and this only God can do, When things are very hard on us God comes through and glorifies His Name.
