Life is tough! Its rough! It throws challenges at us that causes pain, hurt, tears, fear and even death. For me, these times come when seasons are about to change for me. Change brings about an uncertainty that I am never prepared for. One thing I have learnt about myself is that I require a certain measure of security, which also brings a great measure of fear.
I reflected on my life a bit yesterday and the reality of the next few months hit. I was slowly realizing that a slow death was coming to my dreams and plans. Things are not working out the way I though they would have at this time. Things that I expected to be in place aren't in place. This is such scary territory for me. The not knowing eats me up inside.
The fact of the matter is in my humanness, I allow what I see to shake my faith. I allow what I see in the physical to lose faith in what God is doing in the spiritual. I allow feelings of loneliness, hurt, pain, fear and disappointment to shift my focus from the one who gave His everything for me so that I can live in freedom!
This week I have decided to live in that freedom. I have decided that I want to be happy. I want God's joy. I am tired of the roller coaster Christianity that has me up on minute and close to depression the next. I am fed up of allowing my circumstances shake my faith!
My encouragement to you is to believe that with God nothing is impossible. Believe that He is able! Believe that your latter will be greater that your past! Believe that He you will have Joy!
I may feel scared and uncertain of what is to come YET WILL I trust Him!
I may feel like nothing is working out for me YET WILL I believe in the promises He has given me!
I may feel like giving up YET WILL I hold on!
I may not feel like it YET WILL I praise Him.
YET WILL I love Him!
YET WILL I worship Him!
YET WILL I keep pressing!
YET WILL I...
I believe God is going to do a mighty work on Saturday through the ministry of this young man. I believe that lives will be changed, persons healed and lives delivered. God is going to answer the prayers of His people!
YET WILL I...
