Name:

God has been doing phenomenal things in my life. I am no longer the person that I used to be; God has changed me. I have been made whole. I have been through the fire. There have been many days were things appeared to be down and very few days that looked good. God rescued me in the middle of my storm. When we call on God, he will answer us. However, there was a greater blessing in the mist of all of this. It was the relationship that He established between us. I have a real relationship with God now. Like any relationship there is a give and take. One thing I had to give was my time (there are other things but I won’t go there today). I had to take the time to study my word. That is how we get to know God; by studying his word. This Blogger shares the lessons that God has taught me.

A Spiritual Poem From The Psalms of Shambee

Honor

I respect the President, Governor & their mission,
But I give the credit to God who gave them that position.

I respect the Teachers, Preachers & Pastors,
But I give the credit to Jesus, who you are supposed to model after.

I respect Men, Women, and Children what a pleasant picture,
But I give the credit to God, for he created that structure.

I respect the student who worked hard for that degree and I respect the small business owner who dared to believe.

I respect the Officers who patrol day and night, but I call on God when
They are nowhere in sight.

I give the credit to God for everything; he makes my heartbeat and my voice sing.

I will give honor to whom honor is due, but not the glory even if you feel the glory belongs to you.

I love this poem because it shows that you can honor man, however, all the glory belongs to God, the creator of all. Hint: the name of this site.

This poem conveys a very important message. It shows how God is behind all humans' achievements. However it does not quite infasize this message enough, for without God's mercy and grace human beings would not be capable of things they take for granted every day such as having the ability to walk, talk, see, wake up in the morning, or anything else for that matter. Basically, whether people acknowledge God or not he is the cause behind all of their achievements.

Well, Amen. God is behind every achievement of man and the word tells us that they will know. It may be too late by then but they will know. The word states, "For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God," Romans 14:11.
