Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher

We are in a good place today.  We are in the palm of God’s hand and at the heart of God’s plan.  So lift up your voice sing His praise because you are in a good place today.  It may not seem like a good place, it may not feel like a good place, but that is because His plan has not unfolded before you, but hold on to your faith and when you look back at how God is protecting you, you will realize that you were in a good place the whole time.  Praise Him today for the victory that will surely come tomorrow.

Good day to you all! Never underestimate your beauty!  Always understand that your beauty has nothing to do with what the world see’s on the outside.  Your beauty is born in you and was place there by God almighty.  There is so much right with you that you should push to the side whatever you label as what is wrong with you.  Smile today, God loves you!

Your love, liftin’ me higher

Than I’ve ever been lifted before

So keep it up, quench my desire

And I’ll be at your side forever more-Jackie Wilson, “Your Love Keeps Lifting Me”

For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow.  But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Ecclesiastes 4:10

I know what it feels like to be alone without someone to lift me up.  Maybe you also have been in a position where you thought the people around you had your back, only to find out that when you fell on hard times all those people did was back up.  I know what conditional love feels like.  When you have good things going on around you all you can see is smiling faces, but as soon as you are in need the room becomes empty.  In a time of emergency there is no one to be found.  Sometimes it seems like people avoid you because they think you want them to lend some money when all you want  your friends and countrymen to do is lend you an ear. I have been let down by people who I thought loved me enough to lift me up, and it is not a good feeling at all. 

Now once I was downhearted

Disappointment was my closest friend

But then you came and he soon departed

And you know he never showed his face again-Jackie Wilson, “Your Love Keeps Lifting Me”

Dear Reader if you are going through what I have gone through, let me tell you that you are about to be lifted up.  We all fall down, but when you have the love of God not only will you get up, but you will be lifted higher, and higher.  You will find that the same situation that had you looking up, you will now have to look down in order to see it.  Your friends may not be willing to lend you their ears, but God has given you 24 hour access to Him by way of prayer.  Jesus is on the main line so tell Him what you want.  In times of emergency it may have seemed like no one was there, but when you are in an emergency room, in order for the doctor to do his work he will tell all unessential personnel to leave the room.  Dear Reader when you thought that people had left you in your time of need, that was just God telling all unessential personnel to leave the room so that He could work.  God is working out your situation, but you have got some people who are in the way.  There are some people who are not interested in seeing you go any higher than where you are right now.  God’s love is designed to lift you up out of heartbreak and despair, but you have got people around you who want to act like paper weights and hold you down.  I want to encourage you Dear Reader, to surround yourself with people who love you.  I want to encourage you today to surround yourself with people who know God’s love.  I am a witness of what God’s love can do.  I have said many times, “Lord, Your love keeps lifting me higher and higher”.  Dear Reader elevate yourself and embrace God’s love.  God’s love will continue to lift you higher and higher.

You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
