Chicken Noodle Soup

Me-Maw Thoughts

Number 315

January 31, 2017

I remember when I was a little girl around 8 or so, I was sick with a cold.   I was on the sofa covered up with a blanket. The thing I remember about that is not how bad I felt but how good I felt when my Mother sat down beside me and began to spoon feed me chicken noodle soup. I do not remember what she said or even if she was smiling.  I just remember feeling loved and cared for. It was like I was wrapped in a cocoon of my Mother’s Love.

If you are a mother you understand the healing effects of chicken noodle soup but the real healing that day came in the touch of my mother’s hand.

May I tell you this morning that the being in the presence of the Spirit of the Living God feels like being wrapped in a cocoon of Love! When life is at its worse and it seems nothing is going right just begin to imagine Jesus Christ wrapping a blanket around you and giving you chicken noodle soup.

Let me say that the TOUCH OF THE MASTERS hand will change your life. It will turn your trials into triumphs, your defeats into victories and your fears into faith.

Most of us want to do what is right and live, laugh and love but life gets in the way.  It is the everyday grind of getting done the necessary things. I call it life 101.

But what we forget to take into consideration is that if we allow the Creator God of the universe to live in us and through us we can walk each day with the TOUCH OF THE MASTERS HAND.

There is a poem we have all probably heard about the auction of a violin and how the price went soaring when the master musician played that old violin.

This morning I want to tell you that when you allow the master carpenter control He will play out the days of your life with amazing Joy and Peace and you can bask in His Love.  The creator, the one who formed us, just knows how to make it all ok.

Exodus 3:14 (KJV)
¹⁴ And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

In the above scripture Moses had just received an assignment from God to lead the children of Israel out of Egypt.   Notice who God said was sending him to them.

“I AM”

What the God of the Universe was saying to Moses and to us is:

I will be whatever you need me to be!!!  You finish the sentence.  Your sentence could be:

I am your healer,

I am your provider,

I am your wisdom,

I am your peace,

I am your warm blanket,

I am your companion,

What do you need? The one who can do the impossible and knows us inside and out says……..I am ……….

There is an advertisement on TV and Radio from a Real-estate broker.  It ends with:

“I want to, I can and I will.”

The one who created all things is saying to you today: I WANT TO, I CAN AND I WILL be anything you need.

Father, thank you that you are the Great I Am and you are all I need. If you don’t have it you will create it.  But thank you most of all for the blanket of Love that you surround me with.  May each person who reads this understand that the really important thing is not on the outside it is on the inside! I ask this in Jesus name.

 

I wrap you in a blanket of love today!

Love, MeMaw
