Window of opportunities

When God opens a new window of opportunity, why is it that we so often, instead of grabbing the opportunity with both hands, we often miss it! 

Because we are scared. Uncertain.  
We 'back-track' a little...
Wondering if this is from God?
Doubting God, doubting ourselves.
Fast & Pray for days again for an answer, forgetting that you have already been fasting and praying ...

Is it maybe to big to grasp?
Too good to be true?

Surely then this must be true ...'coz we serve a Mighty God... who Himself dreams 'big, 2 good to be true dreams' for us...

He is the type of God that wants to give the very best, and the biggest to us, His beloved ones. Us. You and me.

We have yet to learn to embrace Him. His goodness. His mercy.

Stop & Ponder

Warning to Israel
At the end of seven days the word of the LORD came to me: "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. When I say to a wicked man, 'You will surely die,' and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have saved yourself.

"Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. Since you did not warn him, he will die for his sin. The righteous things he did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. But if you do warn the righteous man not to sin and he does not sin, he will surely live because he took warning, and you will have saved yourself."
Ezekie 3:16-21

A Blessing to you

"Then the Lord spoke to Moses saying, 'Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, "Thus you shall bless the sons of Israel. You shall say to them:

The Lord bless you, and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine on you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace!

Numbers 6:22-27:
