A Moment In Time

It Could Happen

"The race is not for the swift,
Nor the battle for the strong,
Nor bread for the wise,
Nor riches for men of understanding,
Nor favor for men of skill,
But time and chance happen to them all."  Ecc. 9:11
(or shall I say is "given" to us all.)

There are things to be done, and battles, to be won. Friend - God not only wants to use us but surely, he needs to use us as well (no matter our capacity). "And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land ..."
Ezekiel 22:30

The Bible also says, "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."
John 15:5

So, time and chance are given to us all and God is seeking us for help. And, with the Grace of God, we can produce much fruit.

Do you live like a mule or do you live like a race horse? Sadly, many of us choose to live like, a mule. I know at times, I do.  Kenneth Hagin has compared a mule to a race horse saying "You could file the mules teeth and polish his hooves. You could feed him the finest food; run him around the track every day; and house him in the finest stable.  But on the day of the race when the gun sounds, all he'll do is lope off down the track -- because he is a mule. Yet you can take a racehorse, and not give him the same quality of care, but when you put him on the starting line, and the gun sounds, he's Gone! Because he is a racehorse!"

May I submit to you the need to understand that within you rests the Spirit of God -- a racehorse!
There's a racehorse in you! There are times you feel it, why, I think it's safe to say there are times you know it!

It's time to make it happen, don't you think. All that needs to be done now is simply positioning ones-self at the starting line. Picture yourself in the gate. Your head cocks, hooves kicking and stomping, your nostrils flaring and your rider -Jesus Christ- holding tight and keeping you steady. Pray and clearly see what your gift, calling, desire, is. Once your heart, soul, and mind have come to understand, receive it. (See it as your finish line.)

And then ...

Sound the gun girlfriend!
Take a chance!
Run your race!

"Happy trails to you, until we meet again."
