Inseparable

1950-2015

In this life we are not inseparable.  Regardless of the intensity and overwhelming love we have for one another, there comes a time when one of us leaves the other.  Eros love can be intoxicating and we think our love will last a lifetime but we are mere mortals.  Our love is temporal and at times conditional.  We yearn for a significant other to share our life with even going as far as sacrificing Godly standards to manipulating that person into a making a commitment they are not ready to make. At times we believe are lives are unfulfilled because we are not melded to another.  Those who do have a marriage partner can make the mistake of holding that person too tightly.  We fail to acknowledge the One who is truly inseparable.

Romans 8:38-39

38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


This is the love we should long for.  This is the love that will make us whole.  This is the love that will never change or fade away.  Yes, love between a man and woman is a mystery and a gift from God but He wants us to cherish a love that will last for eternity.  Delight in His indestructible love. How can we not be awestruck by this kind of love?  What joy it is to know with every fiber of your body and soul that with God, we are inseparable.  Yes we are!

Are you dirty?

I slept in this morning.   My hotel room was dark and cozy, my shower warm and invigorating.   It was time to get dressed and head home.   I retrieved my undergarments from the dresser, put them on and finished dressing.   When I pulled out my luggage, what did I find?   My clean underwear neatly rolled lay sitting in the bottom of my overnight bag which meant I was wearing day old, dirty underwear.   Why change? Who would know?   I’m just driving home alone.   No one would see my dirty self. Colossians 3:1-10 3  Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.  2  Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.  3  For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.  4  When Christ, who is your [  life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory. 5  Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and g

Bee Clean Car Wash 1 on Nacogdoches in San Antonio | Free Vacs | Free Air

I dread getting my car washed.   I have difficulty following the direction of the attendant as he gives hand signals in order to align my wheels with the moving track.   It seems as though I’m being led to far to the right.   Taking my foot off the break and shifting to neutral is nerve racking as well.   What if I run into the car in front or the car behind hits my bumper?   None of it seems like it should work.   In the past, I have been hit by a car from behind but I must admit I put my hands on the steering wheel which threw the car off track.   Water has come flooding into my car also but that time I’d forgotten to roll up all the windows.   I have issues entering the car wash and while inside.   Despite the angst, my car comes out clean. Joshua 1:9 9  Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord : and he delighteth
