Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?
[Proverbs 6:27-28]

“BREACH OF SECURITY”

Good Morning Beloved,

A few years ago, I went with a friend to home depot. On my way out, the alarm sounded. I looked at the security guard… he looked at me. It was summer time and I had on a tee shirt, stretch pants and sandals (hey we were at the home depot ;0). I went through several times before someone suggested I look at my feet. Sure enough a sensor was stuck to my shoe. The guard told me that he had wondered what was going on … I didn’t even so much as have a purse. That little bitty piece of plastic told on me. As small as it was, it created a sound that could be heard not only all over the store, but the parking lot as well. I had ‘breached security’. We have a similar mechanism in us. The Holy Spirit. The greatest Power in the universe… the power that created everything in eternity, adapted Himself to fit into our tiny frames! Remarkable… mind-blowing. Even more astounding, He has the power to turn us into a grain of salt if He wanted to, yet He respects our free-will so much that He will allow us to do what we want… even to our detriment sometimes. His gentle voice warns us when we’re about to say or do something we shouldn’t. He will minister to our heart and mind when we’re about to cross the line. Reminding us in a split second of the fact that there are consequences for each and every action… good and bad. There are those who ask why God can’t stop war, famine, disease… well, He can. I always want to ask that person, why didn’t God stop you from cheating on your spouse, cursing out the people on the highway, lying on your taxes, and stealing that grape from the produce department. Seems like certain folks like to pull out that old argument, but when they open that box a whole lot more falls out than they anticipated. They have one finger pointed at God, but the other four are pointed back at them. They would say, “yeah, but those are little things, they don’t mean much” . We judge situations on that scale… God’s scale is different… stealing is stealing. That grape may not mean much to you, but it is worth something to the store. What if everyone who entered the store that day took one grape… how many would be left at the end of the day? It is a heart issue… no matter the size of the infraction. The blessed part is that through it all… bottom line… God still has His Hand on the control… humanity would have completely annihilated itself by now otherwise.

Remember ~

There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but GOD is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.

[1Corinthians 10:13]

Heavenly security from on high… greatest safety and protection we will ever need … eternal and free!

… and that Beloved is Good News!

Y stressed? U Blessed!

Have A Fabulous Day
