I thought I was in control of at least that since my life didn\u2019t seem to make any sense.  It wasn\u2019t until much later I saw that I wasn\u2019t in control of how long I\u2019ll be here it was always God.  Miracle after miracle God kept me alive and knew that my time here wasn\u2019t over.  I don\u2019t know how long I\u2019m going to be here and that doesn\u2019t matter, what matters is what I do until it\u2019s time to go home.  <\/p>\n<p>Application: I\u2019m here to serve and fulfill a purpose and that is what I need to be doing.  So I need to put my laziness away and get going doing God\u2019s will.  I talked to Pastor Mike last week and told him I had time to help.  I\u2019m starting the Depression and CIA ministries and we are going to have them on the web site.  I need to follow through and not give up, like God never gave up on me.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer:  Dear Lord you are worthy of all of my love, praise and obedience.  Guide me until it\u2019s time to come home whether it\u2019s tomorrow or years from now that my focus will be on now and how I might best serve you.  I love you and desire that you are proud of me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture Job 14:5 Since his days are determined, The number of his months is with You; You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass.
