The LORD JESUS said:
John 16:33
King James Version
33 These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer;
I have overcome the world.
Face it.
The world's too topsy-turvy.
Can give you scurvy.
I watch news video every day.
Just to see what's happening in the world.
One reporter sighed.
Can't seem to figure out the world.
Then, she mentioned about churches.
How they always ask you to repent.
She'd much rather comb the news.
And try to figure it out on her own.
I knew then, she was not a believer.
Thank GOD I'm a cat.
We're pretty simple.
Feed, cuddle, leave alone.
That's what we ask of humans.
But humans need so much more reassurance.
Forgetting they caused all the problems in the first place.
And they wonder why nothing makes sense.
They're basically stumped.
Couldn't figure out the world.
What they don't know is I'm a CHRISTIAN cat.
Yup, a full-blooded CHRISTIAN cat.
I know a thing.
Or two.
That's why I'm pretty peaceful.
Trusting in the LORD completely.
Look what JESUS said, about not being able to perform miracles in His own country:
Matthew 13:58
King James Version
58 And he did not many mighty works there
because of their unbelief.
One of the stories I love from the Bible, is when apostles couldn't cast out a devil:
Matthew 17:14-20
King James Version
14 And when they were come to the multitude,
there came to him a certain man,
kneeling down to him,
and saying,
15 Lord,
have mercy on my son:
for he is lunatick,
and sore vexed:
for ofttimes he falleth into the fire,
and oft into the water.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples,
and they could not cure him.
17 Then Jesus answered and said,
O faithless and perverse generation,
how long shall I be with you?
how long shall I suffer you?
bring him hither to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked the devil;
and he departed out of him:
and the child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart,
and said,
Why could not we cast him out?
20 And Jesus said unto them,
Because of your unbelief:
for verily I say unto you,
If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed,
ye shall say unto this mountain,
Remove hence to yonder place;
and it shall remove;
and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
It's that UNBELIEF thing.
Causes all the problems.
And yet, all we have to do, is believe in the LORD JESUS.
Acts 16:31
King James Version
31 And they said,
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and thou shalt be saved,
and thy house.
We are to trust in GOD alone.
Psalm 118:8
King James Version
8 It is better to trust in the Lord
than to put confidence in man.
Psalm 146:3-5
King James Version
3 Put not your trust in princes,
nor in the son of man,
in whom there is no help.
4 His breath goeth forth,
he returneth to his earth;
in that very day his thoughts perish.
5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help,
whose hope is in the Lord his God:
Micah 7:7
King James Version
7 Therefore I will look unto the Lord;
I will wait for the God of my salvation:
my God will hear me.
For me and my small cat community, we BELIEVE in JESUS.
We eagerly await the time we'll meet Him up in the air.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
King James Version
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven
with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel,
and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them in the clouds,
to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Who needs nine lives, when you have JESUS for eternal life?
Thus said, we continue to live by Scripture.
Sitting happily at JESUS' feet.
Listening to His WORD.
Waffles and water can wait.
