When All Hope Seems To Have Gone

[songz777]

Luke 1:36 “Your Cousin Elisabeth has conceived in her old age: with her who was called BARREN, for with God nothing shall be impossible”

How many people have deemed us “Barren” oh he or she wont get anyone now, its too late for them. They are the unclaimed treasures in the church. They have had there chance now its too late.

People can be very un-kind cant they?

But listen this verse really encouraged me, because we are in the eyes of some “Barren” in other words NO hope for them!

But look when there is no hope in our eyes, and people say “there hopes gone” well its not!

Zachariah had prayed many years for a child and the angel said “Your prayer has been heard” Yes!! It was a delayed prayer, and when all hope seemed to be gone, God stepped in and not only this in v58, Others “REJOICED” with her (and him).

God is so kind, people may write us off (we older ones) but God doesn’t and His plans are spot on. Its just when your are down and weeping that the hope tends to fade.
You ladies DONT GIVE UP hope of a child either, God is able!!
So be encouraged God is with you.
Bless you John

Meh, I just met a 70ish lady on my flight back from washington. She's engaged. It's never too late until your dead and once your dead it doesn't matter anyway. You get to experience intimacy in its truest form then so no matter what, you can't get out of it. Think about that one.

My mom didn't start having us until she was 35. So there's hope, ladies.

I am tired of always hearing "don't worry honey, there is still time" whenever I tell someone I am single and 30yrs old. I didn't start worrying until I started hearing that. How about, "wait for Gods' timing, He knows who you'll marry". Heck, maybe I am fine being single. Why does everyone assume you want to get married or you are lonely. Honestly, I was totally fine until a few years ago when people started commenting on it.

Of course I would love to be married. But, Jesus is the best partner in the universe, who could compare?

I'm noticing lately as time goes by, I only get older and gain more wait. I am not what I used to be in the prime young ages of my 20's. Honestly, I am feeling less and less lovable. The thing that sucks is that I would consider myself to be a mature Christian and I know what God says about me. But, why can't the men see it?

I have a non-Christian friend who I love dearly, I would give anything for him to get saved -- I would like to spend the rest of my life with him. Unfortunately, he is an ashiest and won't hear anything about God.

Heck, I don't know anymore. I know I've been called to be a ministers wife. I've been preparing myself for this. I love Hulda Buntain (she's my hero). I have started my education in ministery to be prepared for the future mate, but where is he? Maybe I missed it. I don't know.

All I know anymore is that I love God. He is my provider and my keeper. He will be there during the dark times of the soul and he sustains me. He know's my heart.

That was a very encouraging verse, I've never read it that way before, THANK YOU!
