This morning my thoughts go to WHY I NEED GOD! A few years ago as I was delivering on my mail route I found this letter in the hallway of a Medical Building on a bench. As I read it, it was as though GOD HIMSELF was speaking to me.
What a blessing to me, for I was going through some situations in life and needed this letter at that time. God ALWAYS comes through just at the right time for the believer. As I picked up the letter on the bench it read…
“God Said: If you never felt pain,
Then how would you know that I’m a Healer?
If you never went through difficulties,
How would you know that I’m a Deliverer?
If you never had a trial,
…How could you call yourself an over comer?
If you never felt sadness,
…How would you know that I’m a Comforter?
If you never made a mistake,
…How would you know that I’m a Forgiver?
If you knew all,
…How would you know that I will answer your questions?
If you were never in trouble,
…How would you know that I will come, to your rescue?
If you were never broken,
…Then would you know that I can make you whole.
If you never had a problem,
…Then how would you know that I can solve them.
If you never had any suffering,
…How would you know what Jesus went through?
If you never went through the fire,
…How would you become pure?
If I gave you all things,
…How would you appreciate them?
If I never corrected you,
…How would you know I love you?
If you had all the power,
…How would you learn to depend on me?
If your life were perfect,
…What would you need me for?”
