Trusting in Faith

Trusting in Faith


Do I have as much faith in God as I used to? I don't know. But, I yield to Him. I yield to Him because he has promise for me. He is in favor of me. He is in favor of being my provider. Providing me MY life. Providing restoration of what satan has destroyed. In my situation, things happen for His glory. I yielded even though my earthly thoughts seen it as IMPOSSIBLE. Before me was a mountain that impassable. I seen no way that it could be fixed. My only hope was in God. I see signs around town that say nothing is impossible to God.


I often wondered how can I fix my family relationship. I was with out understanding, quick to anger, to defend, to take hold of my pride that has conditioned me by life. God opened my eyes. I gained and seen His hope that He had in me. This came from a guy that despised God.Though I knew that I was wrong, did I humble myself to succumb to His grace?


It was impossible for me to fix my situation. So I prayed, people also prayed for me. "Don't fight these hands that are holding you"- This comes from a song that I recently heard. God carries us when we trust Him. I succumbed to His plan, His will, that He has for me. So I let God take over and asked Him to fix my life. 


I will live and stay in the word and He will make my path for me. Often, I go through trials. Then read my devotional to scripture and my answer is right there! God is making my path and then showing me what I have learned and how to deal with what I went through. What He does with all of us who humble ourselves before Him is He is pruning us. Pruning our branches much like a gardner does. Cuts off the week limbs so the other limbs can grow stronger. 


It can be hard to wait for God. People often wonder what the heck am I waiting for. But I have not told them that I am waiting for God to move for me. He tells us not to worry about tomorrow and that He will provide for us.


I love my Lord and Savior so much. I wish I could feel Him myself. But there will be a day when that comes for we are only here for a short while. We won't have to deal with Satan's fiery darts. No more pain.


But to get back to what I am intending to write about, is to trust everything in your life to God. Read your devotional. If you are feeling down, read the bible. God will bring light into you darkness. Look to God in every situation because there is a reason why your are going through this (what ever it is), and He will reveal the answer to you.


Prayer:

Lord, thank you for your wisdom and understanding in showing me what you can do in ones life. I pray that more people get chosen and that you would use them to be a witness for You. I praise you and trust you to restore what was taken down. For what ever is taken down by the enemy will be restored to be stronger and never waiver again. Amen.
