The Cross Roper
March 2010


     My horse stumble to her knees and I fell off. In my attempt to remount I backed my horse into the Flagger. I was embarrassed and just wanted out of the Arena. I thought “Why me Lord”? Why would you allow this to happen to me? Looking back, the thought should not have crossed my mind.  It was ridiculous to blame anyone for this, least of all the Lord…
     Yet, this seems trivial to the trials and tribulations of my son and daughter-in-law who has endured their child surviving cancer only to now face an extreme back operation that is needed to straighten her back (the cancer stopped the growth of a vertebra and now she needs steel rods to keep her back straight).
     It is very hard in situations like this not to question God with a “Why Me”? We seem not to be able to go through this life without the “Why me Lord, Why me”? However, does blaming God ever change the situation? No! Only praying to God for wisdom and understanding will ever bring forth any light on the matter and that in itself is in Gods time…
     It is my understanding that we are granted life on this earth, given instruction on how to live a Christian life and in doing so (when we are called home) receive our reward which is Eternal Life with our Lord. AMEN!

James 1:13-14
13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each one is tempted when by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. NIV

     Everyone has their own Trials, or Temptations. This is why each of us is unique, and must be individually saved by grace. When grouped together we become a part of the body of Christ and each part of the body makes up the Church. So as each of us faces these temptations; first we call upon the Lord for wisdom and understanding, and then we should also seek the comfort and fellowshipping from of our Church family.

James 1:12
Blessed is the man that perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. NIV
