JOB 42
Then Job answered the Lord, and said, I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; but now mine eye seeth thee;: Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.

DON'T FAINT
GOD'S DISCIPLINE
For consider him that endured such contradiction (hostility) of sinners against himself, unless you be wearied and faint (be discouraged) in your minds (souls). You have not yet resisted unto blood (bloodshed), striving against sin. And you have forgotten the exhortation which (was spoken) speaketh unto you as unto children (sons), MY SONS, DESPISE NOT THOU THE CHASTENING (DISCIPLINE) OF THE LORD, NOR FAINT (BE DISCOURAGED) WHEN THOU ARE REBUKED OF HIM: FOR WHOM THE LORD LOVE HE CHASTEN, AND SCOURGE EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVE. If you endue chastening, God deal with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasten not? But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards (iligitimate), and not sons. Furthermore, we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence (respect): shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they (earthly fathers) verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure (as seemed best unto them); but HE (the Lord) for our profit, that we might be partakers of His holiness. Now no chastening (discipline) for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yeilds the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised (trained) thereby. Hebrews 12:3-11.
Paraphased: Because you are the Lord's child, He will discipline you; just as your earthly father disciplines you. Do not despise the Lord for his chastening; He does so because He loves you. When your earthly father disciplines you; you know that he does so because he wants to teach you to do right. You understand and respect your earthly father for the discipline; it is no more than right to give the Lord the same respect and understanding? No one wants to be disciplined...it is painful; but when you are disciplined you are trained to do the right things. Remember, our Lord shed His blood for us, He did not faint. So, I share with you...when you find that things are not going your way...don't be weary and don't faint...you will reap joy if you faint not.

BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED!
CLARK SISTERS' Lyrics to Blessed and Highly Favored:
http://youtu.be/rWxshbbTYkc
Verse 1:
He brought me through hard trials
He brought me through tribulations
Never let a day go by and not realize
Had not been for the Lord who was on my side
Back was against the wall
He looked out for me
He heard my cry and rescued me
Never let a day go by and not realize we are blessed
Chorus:
Don't take it for granted that we are here today
Just know that we're blessed and highly favored
Just know that we're blessed and highly favored
Verse
Chorus
Bridge:
As I look back through the years,
It's amazing how He kept me.
What the devil mean't for evil,
God turned it around,
Turned it around just for my good.
I know that I am blessed and highly favored.
Just know that we're blessed and highly favored.
Vamp 1:
It coulda' been me,
It shoulda' been me,
It woulda' been me if it wasn't for the blood.
Vamp 2:
Grace, mercy.
Grace, mercy.
Ending:
Just know that we're blessed and highly favored,
just know that we're blessed and highly favored

Far from the truth.
It saddens me to hear and see Christians say that the Lord hates homosexuals or gays; for this is far from the truth. The Lord everyone including YOU.

Listen! the Lord is Speaking...
And My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, said the Lord.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55: 8 and 9
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55: 8 and 9
Listen to the Lord!!
For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, said the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.
