There is nothing that
God does not know and understand. His
ways and His thoughts are infinite and should never be compared to man. Many of
us struggle daily in keeping the faith, we struggle in keeping our flame of
hope burning and we struggle in keeping our focus on the things of God. Why is it that we struggle, why is our flame
not as bright as it used to be? Let’s
just say it’s because of disappointment, pain, discouragement, frustration,
helplessness and guilt, jealousy, false burdens, murmuring, unforgiveness, and
so many other influences of today.
Is it because we can’t
get past the abundance of strongholds that has bound our spirit, soul and
mind? We dwell on the negative because
that is what we see daily, we are unable to look to the hills from whence
cometh our help. To have a glimmer of hope in a sea of negativity is like
finding a needle in the desert. In truth,
that’s all we need – just a glimmer of hope to help us to keep going, to keep
us striving for the prize and to help us to keep our minds focus on God and His
promises.
God knows the truth, He
understands the true cause/reason for the pain in our hearts, He sees the
reasons for all the disappointment we have faced, yes, God knows the truth behind
everything. We cannot hide, deny,
contradict or hold back anything from Him; we can only try to hold truth from
ourselves and others. When you know that
He (God) is the only one you can be totally truthful with then go to Him no
matter the hurt, the pain you feel, the unforgiveable act or of the disappointment,
God is the only one you can be completely truthful with.
You don’t have to worry
about your business getting out in the street, He won’t point an accusing
finger at you, nor will He call you names for wrong decisions that you
made. God loves you in spite of all the
failures, in spite of all the wrong moves you made, in spite of the confidence
you lack, He wants you to keep drawing closer to Him. We must remember that God
is in control, we must let go of all negativity, wrong thinking, and wrong
speaking and we must remember where we have placed our trust in and in whom we
do trust. As you begin to let go of the many hindrance’s just know that God is
there with you in the process, even when it becomes too difficult to let go of
the unforgiveness or the shame, He is right there next to you encouraging you,
letting you know that He loves you.
Be encourage my friends,
know that there is no sin that God can’t forgive, there is nothing that we can
do to tear His love away from us, as He was merciful to Israel He will be
merciful to you.
God bless
