   "How Long?"
  
    
A teacher affects eternity; he/or she can never tell where his or her influence stops.        Henry Adams  

     
    
    
      "How Long?"   (1 of 5)                  

Questions!!! Our lives are filled with questions! 

Will I be successful! 

How long must I be kind to unkind people? 

Why am I experiencing this, which I am suffering? 

image question mark w three people

"How Long" will this take? 

How much time should we allocate? 

When will this be over, etc.? 

If we are enjoying an experience, then time seems to fly by so quickly. 

Unlike is the case when our experience is the opposite. 

There are also "How Long" questions recorded in the Bible. Psa. 94:3-ISV- How long will the wicked, LORD, how long will the wicked continue to triumph?

Psa. 13:1-KJ-How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? forever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

  
                    "How Long?"   (2 of 5)

 
Additional "How Long" questions recorded in the Bible are:

 Psalm 13:2-NLT- How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul, with sorrow in my heart every day? How long will my enemy have the upper hand?

Psalm 89:46-NLT-O LORD, how long will this go on? Will You hide yourself forever? How long will Your anger burn like fire?

question mark


Psalm 4:2-NLT-How long will you people ruin my reputation? How long will you make groundless accusations? How long will you continue your lies? 

No, we don't have the answer to the questions of "How Long" must we endure difficult, puzzling, and inconvenient experiences? 

However, the general answer we must settle in our minds is that we are willing to endure for as long as Daddy-God desires for us to endure. 


       
 
                   "How Long?"   (3 of 5)


We must be committed to the Lord Jesus no matter how long He allows us to live, work and abide in our current encounters!  

When we are in an active relationship with the Lord and our lives are pleasing to Him, then we can have the confidence that trouble won't last always.  

committed

We learn that we must have the commitment of living the Christian lifestyle 24 hours-7 days a week, 365 (366) days of the year. 

We also learn to rest in the truth that Daddy-God's love, faithfulness and mercy will cover and protect us when needed.  

It will lead and guide us into all truth and righteousness.  It will strengthen us when our strength is diminishing.  



  
                       "How Long?"    (4 of 5)

Daddy -God and Jesus also have some questions for us. 

    Mark 9:19-NLT-Jesus said to them, "You faithless people! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to me." 
man standing before God

    Numbers 14:11-NLT- And the LORD said to Moses, "How long will these people treat me with contempt? Will they never believe me, even after all the miraculous signs I have done among them? 

Proverbs 1:22-NASB -"How long, O naive ones, will you love being simple-minded? And scoffers delight themselves in scoffing and fools hate knowledge? 

God's questions are designed to motivate us to examine our own lives, and to remind us that He is observing how we respond to our "How Long" aggravations.  


                
                       "How Long?"   (5 of 5)


man ashamed

2 Tim. 4:5- NLT-But you should keep a clear mind in every situation. (Keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, always be 

      sober-minded, endure suffering, endure afflictions, be self-controlled in all things and endure hardship). 

          Don't be afraid of suffering for the Lord. Work at telling others the Good News, and fully carry out the ministry God has given you. 

Let's be mindful and focused to endure, trust and to depend on the Lord to walk with us through our "How Long" experiences. 

Yes, through Him, we can endure and overcome the "How Long"  questions and experiences of our lives.

God bless!

Subject: Re: "I Don't Want To Be Disgraced!"
Hey Dr. Lewis: Thanks for sharing this week and every week wonderful words of wisdom.  It is important that we seek God for guidance and stay in the right path so we won't be disgraced. We are the people of God and He won't let that happen if we stay in the Word and do what He tells us to do. Thanks again and be blessed.   
Love you lot's!  Evangelist V L
 
Hello Mother Lewis, How are you? Hope all is great with you and your family. I apologize for not having responded to your emails. But I do appreciate them, and I really appreciate you as well. I look forward to fellowshipping with you real soon. Have a wonderful week, and thank you again for your emails, as well as for your kindness.  GOD bless and keep you! Love, Your son in the LORD, J J
 
Thank you for still guiding me. It's nice that even as I'm an adult your still here. Thank you Dr. Tonya Lewis.  L C


Greeting Dr. T. I super love getting your emails. You are so prompt to answer back I don't always respond back because I know you will get back and I know you have so much to do. The War Room movie was the best super good. First time I been this year I think. My daughter was crying and I was praising the Lord. It encouraged me to pray more. I have my prayer and devotion every morning plus go to 6am and 12noon prayer not every day, but some days and that is not enough. God is super good to me. A Blessed Lord's DAY to you, your grandson and other family members. Much Love. S R

Subject: Re: "Keep On Keeping On"
Hello  Dr. Lewis,  just reviewing your newsletter from last week, because I heard Dr. Charles Stanley quoting the same words tonight on TV  keep on keeping on,  His message was titled "The Courage to keeping on."   What a rhema word in hearing from both of you just a week apart.  That's called being in tune with God.  And because God is near, there is no need to fear.   God bless you this hour, keep on keeping on. Love,  Sis. A S    
 
BEAUTIFUL DR. LEWIS AND ALL BEAUTIFUL THINGS THAT YOU ARE. I APPRECIATE ALL THOSE THINGS IN YOU. DON'T HAVE TO DO A THING.  I KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND JESUS KNOWS TOO. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH.  AGAIN, LOVE, PEACE AND BLESSING. A V
 
Thanks Dr. T. I praise and thank God for the newsletter. I pray to follow the path and direction of my Heavenly Father. Jesus is the Light of the world. I pray to be a light and not to be a disgrace.

Precious Nuggets

I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you're able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something... it's about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.  Joyce Meyer
 
Culture makes people understand each other better. And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers. But first they have to understand that their neighbour is, in the end, just like them, with the same problems, the same questions.    Paulo Coelho
 
No one is dumb who is curious. The people who don't ask questions remain clueless throughout their lives.  Neil deGrasse Tyson
 
Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone's face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come.   Henri Nouwen
 
One of the very important characteristics of a student is to question. Let the students ask questions.   A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
 
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.   Confucius
 
If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit.  William J. Clinton
 
The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper. Bertrand Russell

Patience is not simply the ability to wait - it's how we behave while we're waiting.Joyce Meyer
 

I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.J. B. Priestley
  
 
You usually have to wait for that which is worth waiting for.  
Craig Bruce

There is a difference between listening and waiting for your turn to speak.  Simon Sinek
