MY FRIENDS, IS THERE EVER A TIME WE CAN SAY, NO MORE, NO MORE?

Many celebrities have died or took their own lives, or been killed in my lifetime. But none affected me or caused me to think about God’s Children’s vulnerability as we continue this journey He has placed each of us on to the promise land. Robin Williams and myself, are the same age, our birthdays are four days apart. His career on TV started about 1978 on the show Mork and Mindy.

I have watched, one or two of his movies, but whatever venue he was performing on TV I would stop and listen, knowing I would be entertainment at that moment because he seemed like he always gave you 110% as he had the unique ability to “go from manic to mad to tender and vulnerable, which allowed everyone to smile and forget our own problems.

I guess you can say he always made you feel like he was one of us the average man or woman who tries desperately from day to day to keep our head above water. So my friends let’s focus today on what point do we get to, where we go from I’m moving towards the point in my life that I am somewhat comfortable with, to a point of “one who has no hope”

And where does the bar have to be set for a Child of God to allow the god of this world to take us to the very edge of sanity, and then to insanity, where we SAY TO OUR-SELF, NO MORE, NO MORE? And then the coroner report reads “clothed, in a seated position “with a belt secured around his neck, with the other end of the belt wedged between the clothes closet door and the door frame, with his right shoulder area touching the door, with body perpendicular to the door and slightly suspended.”

Reports also have Mr. Williams being diagnosed with early signs of Parkinson disease, plus he was forever battling depression and of course, his battles never ceased with alcoholism. Once again my friends what point do we as a Child of God get to where we SAY TO OUR-SELF NO MORE, NO MORE? Or when do we “discover, the secret, after climbing a great hill, [we] only [find out] that there are many more hills to climb.”

And as we take a moment to rest, we become complacent and want to stay right where we are and not move another step and it is at that time when the journey just doesn’t seem worth it and we give up. But my friends as we look above and ask our God “Are You telling me to go? Are You telling me to stay? Are You telling me to hold on to You for another day? ‘

Cause I got nothing left Yeah I’m hanging by a thread I give You all my weakness, You give me Your strength ‘Cause I’m here again, Here at my end Where You begin. (Mandisa – Where You Begin) Yes God pleads with us, don’t give up and let Go, for Eternity and My kingdom is worth it. In addition, remember as “you draw near the battle against [the god of this world]:”

“let not your heart faint. Do not fear or panic or be in dread of [the forces of evil], for the Lord your God is He who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory.” Deuteronomy 20:3-4 (KJV) My friends we are at the threshold of the “Promise Land” we can never  SAY, NO MORE, NO MORE. In addition, as His chosen we are stationed at God’s COMMAND AND CONTROL CENTER.

This is where our God has place His chosen, throughout the world, where we will exercise His authority and direction, as He assigns  His faithful the resources to accomplish His will on “ÖNE ACCORD” and with one objective and that is to spread the good news of the gospel “as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” My friends that is the only way to end this battle, there is no short cuts to eternity for “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 (NIV)

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
