Did you ever notice that we always want everything to be OK all the time? It’s literally impossible to be OK all the time it’s a land that doesn’t exist.
But nevertheless, we always want everything to be OK. What happens when things are not OK? Then we really have an issue. Don’t we? This means we are called to utilize resources that we may not even know we have we might need to ask for help. Many times we don’t do that Because we’re embarrassed and feel like we “should” be able to handle everything all the time.
Do you see how unrealistic it is for everything to be OK all the time? What about if we take a different approach to life if we realize that everything is not going to be OK all the time we don’t need to live in dread all the time we need to live in reality. This is where God comes in.. God is sovereign. Most people don’t even know what that means. It means that God literally and I mean literally knows every hair on your head even if you’re bald!
It means that he knows the end from the beginning and he has all the strength and resources that we need if we will tap into it. But that requires humility, honesty, trust and faith. Faith is the substance of things that we hope for the evidence of things that we don’t see… Yet. I’m not talking about God being a genie in a bottle granting one of your wishes and then if you just have enough faith, you’ll get everything that You want. In fact, be careful what you pray for. For example, if you pray for patience, he’s going to give you situations in which you need patience this will require humility. Trust faith, patience.
The real good news is this is God’s will for your life that you would be completely dependent upon him not on your own strength. Why don’t you take some time and investigate this today? You’re welcome to reach out to me at pastorbill@kairoslife.net.
Many blessings your way, even if they’re in disguise
