Born To Believe

I had a painful phone conversation with a dear freind in recent days. She's heavy with hurt. Her heart is hurt and unsure which direction God's will is taking.  We conversed over what is the right thing to do. Where is the line drawn? It weighed both of our  hearts. I wanted to reach through the phone line and hug her. I am sure she felt the same for me. I told her how our lives are entwined, I wanted to lift her burdens and solve the problem, but, of course, I couldn't. So I listened, reminding her as well as myself  of God's  Unending Love. 

Are you feeling overwhelmed today? Discouraged by the complicated challenges you face? Perhaps you have a friend who is nursing emotional wounds.Perhaps there is a mountain that stands in the way.
 There are so many hurting hearts in this world. So many burdens being carried by souls weary of the task. So many people desperate for a miracle from God. Desperate for healing and hope. 
 Most feel time is not on their side.
 My Granny once said "That a day upright was a day filled with hope". I am upright, until God decides to change that fact.I must keep the Faith.
  "So take a new grip with your tired hands and strengthen your weak knees. Mark out a straight path for your feet so that those who are weak and lame will not fall but become strong."  Hebrews 12:12-13
These are the words of truth I will cling to, when I fear what comes next,
when I wonder if I can move to the next level.
 I am responsible for my behavior, my will is not God's plan for my life.

God knew we would struggle with difficulties of the world.
 In His Word, He lovingly points us to Hope. 
"So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God's Spirit when he adopted you as his own children.*
 Now we call him, Abba, Father.
* For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God's children. Romans 8 15-16. ( Living Bible ) 


Desperate times call for a desperate faith.
 As Christians, we have faith in a person - God.
 Faith in and of itself is meaningless, but faith in an all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful God means everything ... because He is the same yesterday, today, and forever
. Faith is the core of our lives. It is essential to pleasing God.

 He wants us to trust Him in every trial and through every trouble.
 "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." (Hebrews 11:6, NIV)

Are you desperate for a miracle today? Is the declining economy, the burden of debt, or soaring unemployment rate affecting you or someone you love?
Are you feeling out of control?
 Perhaps you bear the pain of a broken marriage, broken dreams, or a broken body.
 If you are desperate for healing, help, and hope, ask the Lord to increase your faith today, and make a determined choice to trust Him. When you do,
He will meet you at your need and carry the load of your burdens for you.
