“Cool” doesn’t begin to explain…..
Yesterday: put my “two weeks” in at one of my jobs because I felt like the Lord had asked me to lay it down and trust that he will take care of me.
Today: I look to see what my direct deposit will be from my check this week and it’s $230 more than I thought it was going to be!
Thank you for already proving your faithfulness even though I’m still technically with two jobs. Thank you for being honest and patient with me. The way you work just blows me away and its just really really cool. I have no idea how else to describe it. Thanks God, you’re pretty neat.
Little piece of my journal this morning. :)
Hope and Faith, but Mostly Doubts
Why as Christians do we doubt the things the Lord said He can do in our lives? Why do we let that lie from Satan creep in and tell us we aren’t worthy, or what we want could never work out. When has the Lord ever failed you? NEVER! And I can say that with full confidence.
I just want to encourage everyone to keep their eyes and hearts focussed solely on Jesus. He is faithful, and whatever it is in your life that seems impossible, I guarantee it is smaller than my God. The Bible says in James 1:6 “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.” I don’t know about you, but when I go to God in faith, I want to be firm where I stand with Him. I don’t HOPE God CAN do something, I BELIEVE He WILL do something. Hope is just faith without true belief behind it.
Now correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t recall anywhere in the Bible where God has filled someone with doubt. In fact my God is a sure thing, He’s 100%, He is as solid as they come, and His word is true. So no need for doubt, and no need for fear. It’s not a question of will what He said come to pass, it’s WHEN will it come to pass.
Be faithful and diligent. Keep believing what the Lord has told you, and pray hard. He will not let you down, and He WILL NOT let you fall to the way side. If He has promised you something in your heart, stand firm in it no matter how far away, impossible, or grim it might look. He knows all, sees all, and can do all. He is faithful, so don’t let doubts trip you up.
Mark 11:23
“Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.”
He replied, “What is impossible from a human perspective is possible with God.”
Luke 18:27
Father keep my eyes and focus on you instead of the things I can’t do on my own, because in all honestly, I can’t do anything without you. You are so able, and You are SO faithful. Nothing is impossible for You and for me that means everything is possible.
I love you more than anyone. You are my one and only. You are my true love.
He remains faithful, so I must remain diligent.
