Testimony Tuesday

Have look at this amazing video of tears under a microscope. What do you see?

Did you know that tears will crystallize when they start to dry out? They form patterns that will never repeat again. Amazing!

God’s care for each of us is so profound even our tears glorify Him. The uniqueness of the pattern of these crystallized tears are as different as each individual on this planet.

When David wrote the verse below he was hiding from his enemies in a cave. In this period of David’s life, he was completely alone. This made him value the sympathy and care of God all the more, and he found great comfort in the thought that God noted his misery.

God cares about all the emotions we have, not just sad emotions, even the joyful ones.

As I watch the beautiful formations these tears make I am in complete awe.

He gives us the gift of tears to remind us that He is near us when we cry out to Him in sorrow, loneliness, grief, or pain and He celebrates with us when we experience joy, relief, happiness and laughter.

“You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?”
Psalm 56:8 ESV

I love this short story about an atheist father who shares how God healed his autistic son, and how God responded to him when he cried out to the Lord.

When I hear an atheist say; “I don’t believe in God.”

What they are really saying, is they actually do believe—they just have faith in something else. Perhaps they don’t know exactly what they believe in.

Even if someone doesn’t believe that God exists, they still believe in something.

I would imagine it would take more faith for them to maintain their atheism than it would to just simply believe.

And this is the interesting part, every person on earth starts off with an emptiness in their heart of hearts that only God can fill. That is by design. Perhaps atheism is more about not what they don’t believe but more about something they just haven’t experienced yet.

And with this father, that “something” prompted him to call upon God. Hmmm? Isn’t that interesting? So that empty spot in his heart had a voice and spoke to him loud enough for him to hear and consider there just might be a God who cares, and listens. Praise God this father heard God’s voice within his heart, and called out to the One who cares.

“And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved...”
Joel 2:32 ESV

I’ve often wondered this myself. What a time to be alive.

“For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”
Esther 4 : 14 KJV

Testimony Tuesday

I have two very powerful video testimonies to share today by the same person.

I’m going to let these videos speak for themselves. God has a message for many of you today. It was meant for me as well.

“My child, you are always with Me, and all that I have is yours —Luke15:31

We lack nothing—we simply must engage with what has already been given.

Get intolerant of the giants standing between you and your inheritance.

“Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle; he is my steadfast love and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield and he in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.”
Psalm 144:1-2 ESV

Father,

I’ve clenched my fists long enough.

I’ve white-knuckled my way through storms You never asked me to command. I’ve worn myself out trying to fix what only Your hands can heal. So today, I let go.

Not in defeat, but in surrender.

Not in weakness, but in warfare.

Because true strength is laying down the idol of control and lifting up the name that never fails.

God, I confess I’ve tried to play Savior in a world that already has one. I’ve micromanaged my mess and called it responsibility. I’ve confused anxiety with planning and fear with wisdom. I don’t need to approve Your will. I just need to trust it.

So wreck my pride if You have to. Tear down the scaffolding I’ve built around my fears. Reroute my plans, ruin my comfort, and realign my steps until they match Your pace, Your path, Your purpose.

I don’t want safe. I want sanctified.
I don’t want predictable. I want powerful.
And I don’t want control. I want Christ.

Jesus, be the only one at the wheel. Let my hands fall empty while Your Spirit takes over. When I let go, You lift me up. When I stop trying, You start moving. And when I die to self, resurrection power shows up.

Break me open if You must, but don’t let me walk another step pretending I’m in charge.

I trust You.
I surrender.
And I refuse to take back the reins.

In the name of the One who holds the universe.
