Gideon & Our Emotions

Gideon and Our Emotions

/

Numerous issues with people and situations can evoke emotions. But if we let our emotions get the best of us, we are not in control of our person. When situations, conflicts, and things out of our control cause us to react, we need to ask ourselves what we are feeling and why is it taking over our ability to have peace. If traffic is causing us to become anxious, riding on the bumper in front of us, swearing or becoming angry, there is much more going on than an absentminded driver in front of us.

Hope Deferred & Desire Fulfilled

We often wait patiently for certain things to transpire or come to pass. Unfortunately, at times, the things we hope for, long for, and cry out to the Holy One for do not materialize or happen when we feel they should. Occasionally, they do not happen at all.

The Journey of a Prophet, The Role of a Prophet

The Journey of a Prophet

/

A prophet is met with death in the womb or shortly after. It may be a breach, uterine rupture, or strangulation by cord. Either way, some form of difficulty usually occurs before birth or afterward. The prophet is at times unloved in the womb, rejected before even exiting the ramp. Once the prophet meets his assigned family, he never feels truly a part of it, although he does love them deeply, he is a misfit. The prophet, at any time, may abruptly be told to leave his family, homeland, or flee for his life. He is mostly without a mother or father, and even if found to be a goodly child by his mother, he is then hunted by an outside power, whether Pharaoh or Herod or some other demonic force.
