Hello friends, I hope you all had a blessed Sabbath and if you're doing church today, have a blessed Sunday!
Yesterday was a wonderful day. I just love giving 24 hours of my week to the Lord and allowing Him to reboot my batteries with His presence, His words, His songs, and His embrace. Yesterday's message was a spiritual awakening in every sense of the word. I felt shocked with electricity with every word spoken because it all made me feel so small and yet so loved and dependent on my Savior. I wish I could give you a summary of the message but it was impossible to take notes. It was just truth after truth after truth shaking me to open my eyes and make God the first priority of my life by surrendering my entire existence over to Him and BELIEVE through FAITH that He will come through in every problem, situation, concern, heartache, whatever, just as He PROMISED. My faith was feeling really small at this point. When I introspectively saw how much stress, worry, and anguish I've held in my body, I'm just in awe of how small my faith really is. I mean, seriously? Do we not believe that when God says, "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, 'He is my refuge and strength, my God, in whom I trust," he actually means it? (Psalm 91) He will be our refuge, our strength, our deliverer, our provider. These are all promises He's made to us but still, I worry, as if I didn't believe He will come through. Stress is a body-killer and doubt is a faith-killer. Neither should have a place in the heart of a Christian who's hope is in the God who made heaven and earth and molded me with His hands.
I want to live this year knowing that my God has done and will do as He promised. I want to live with the certainty that no matter what is troubling my mind, God is bigger than all of it. He is able, He is willing, in fact, He already said He WILL.
Praying for God to strengthen my faith this year and strengthen yours too as you seek to KNOW Him more!
