Waiting On God

Hi, my name is Jasper and I'm a quadriplegic.  I know some people do not believe in divine healing.  As a matter of fact you may go through your entire lift and not see it, but still it's there.  The Lord said by my stripes ye are healed and that means that he bore all our sicknesses.  If you believe strong enough, and it be the Lords will, you could actually heal yourself.  I myself am a believer.  I have no feelings in my lower body but still I believe that through divine healing someday I will walk.  Sometimes if you have something as simple as a headache just quiet yourself and meditate and tell yourself you are not going to receive your headache and the Lord will remove it.  I was born in the 50's, which was the Polio era, I was a kid who wasn't supposed to walk.  I had braces and crutches but I can remember running down the hallway with the Dr's watching me and applauding me.  I was not supposed to be able to walk but instead I became able to run thanks to the Lord.  So if you, have any affliction that you don't want keep meditating on it and speak to your body.  Tell it to remove itself, then have faith in your higher power that he will remove it in His time.  Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to wait on something we want so bad.  But the Lord said in His word be anxious for nothing.  He also said he will not leave you or forsake you but we have to believe.  So I don't know about you but I'm waiting on God.  My name is Jasper and these are my thoughts.

Live Life on the First Pew

Hello my name is Jasper and I'm a quadriplegic and I've learned that no matter what physical state, mental state you may be in we all need to be spiritually fed.  Sometimes are lives may take a wicked turn, it may seem a turn for the worst, we may feel like our lives are done for but if we learn to live our lives as if we were seated on the very first pew we can learn new things and live a productive life once again.  We need Jesus in our lives if we are going to succeed.  This is what I believe and this is what I do.  I open my heart to the Lord and when I'm in His house I sit on the very first pew.  I don't want to miss a thing.  I want to hear every word that he has to speak to me and I also live my life that way, as if I'm still sitting on that very first pew.  It helps me in so many ways to keep Him on my mind.  It helps me to get along with others, keeps me motivated, keeps me safe knowing He's in my life forever.  As best I can as I go throughout my day, I keep my mind on that first pew knowing that God is going to provide all my needs.  So I say to you if you have any doubts about yourself, life in general, things may not be going your way, I urge you next time you get to your local church march right in and go right to the front and sit on the first pew.  It'll give you a whole new perspective.  I'm Jasper and these are my thoughts.
