What promise has God made you?
Maybe He promised you that He would save your children.
Maybe He promised you that He would send your spouse.
Maybe He promised to provide in the midst of your financial hardships.
When God makes us a promise it seems as if something happens to make it seem impossible. A financial setback that puts you in an even deeper hole. A broken relationship with that person you just knew you were going to marry. A call from the jailhouse saying that your child was just arrested...
Again I ask, "What promise has God made you?"
This week, the Lord promised me that this would be the last week I'd have to worry about my upcoming mission's trip... I believed Him. But, it was a foggy kind of belief. I was then told my our mission's leader that I needed $600 more than I thought. Within 48 hours, I raised a significant amount of that!!!
It has been an emotional roller coaster. A faith roller coaster.
It's in these moments that we remember those promises people made and failed to keep.
We remember all the people we thought we needed to make it happen.
We remember the plans that fell through...
And after we stress and worry and fuss and cry... That's usually when we remember God!
God didn't need you to make it happen. He just wanted to use you to make it happen. God didn't need you to choose the people that were going to bless you. He just wanted you to receive His blessings from who ever and whenever He allowed it!!! God didn't need you to make plans. He just wanted you to follow His plans!!!
Faith is assurance of what you don't see... Don't be discouraged if you don't see it! Just step back and watch God do what you can't even imagine!!! He is able.
God bless.
