Be Still.............

I will bet if I was in a room filled with people and I asked them to raise their hands if they were dealing with some major life issus, 90% would raise their hands. Some might even get up and wave for added emphasis!

Boy! Can I relate to this one!

Does this sound familiar?

-You have tried to get loans
-You have begged and pleaded with God
-You have gone to relatives
-You have lowered your standards in hope of getting the man/woman/job,etc
-You have become overly frustrated
-You feel like a failure because you feel like there is nothing more "you" can do

I could go on and on butI think I had better get to the point.

One question: Where is your faith?

Do you realize you are serving a God bigger than any circumstance you could ever face?This is the same God that delivered human men from a fire that never once burned them? This is the same God that placed you in your mother and allowed her to bring you into the world. This is the God you are turning your back to in your time of need!!!!

The bible tells us to cast our cares upon Him because He cares for us. To cast means to throw! So throw God the mess you are dealing with, the desires you have, the relationships you desire to be mended! He will catch it and handle it! Notice above I put quotes around the word 'you'. This is meant to say that you are not supposed to do anything! What you ca do is irrelevant. God wants the glory! Imagine that? God wants to take care of you, your needs wants and desires and you are not letting Him! He wants to help you and He will if you would just back up, be still and know that He is God!!!

Until next time!!!!!
