Shaking my head

path

Sometimes I just have to shake my head at my own doubts about Gods’s faithfulness.

If He has been faithful ever other time in my life, why would he not be faithful now!

It is so easy to lose track, when the world is spinning all around you and you feel as if the rug will be pulled out from under you.

But as Deuteronomy 7:9 says

Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.

He is faithful to lead and guide us 100% of the time. And even if we get ourselves off track He will bring us back around to where we need to be.

If you are unsure of a decision give it to God.

Say “I am going to do this thing God if I am wrong change my direction to the way that I should go.” 

He will bring you into alignment of his perfect will for your life as you submit it to Him.

Mighty faith

Faith, mighty faith, the promise sees, And looks to God alone; Laughs at impossibilities, And cries it shall be done.~ Charles Wesley

God is Trustworthy

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man.

~ Psalm 118:8 ESV

A great story about the “VeggieTale” Guy and God’s Faithfulness

I am currently reading the book Me, Myself, and Bob: A True Story About God, Dreams, and Talking Vegetables It is a bio of the talented author and creator of VeggieTales, Phil Vischer.

In the book he shares a great example of God’s faithfulness. 

He had on his heart to make a computer animated program for children, and after much struggle did create VeggieTales but could not get the backing to allow him to create the program and still provide for his wife and baby girl.

He hit wall after wall and finally was down to his last dollar.  He began to doubt that it was really his call after all and in desperation called out “God tell me this isn’t just me-tell me you’re in this too.”

Right after he started to go through a stack of mail…all bills except an anonymous hand addressed envelope. Inside was  a $400.oo cashiers check with a note that said “God laid it on my heart that you might need this.”

In the book Phil says,

“That wasn’t the end of our ‘hard times’…but since that day I have never once doubted that God has called me to use my gifts for him, and that he will supply whatever resources I need in his perfect timing.

And I will never give up.” (page 75).

Wow how faithful is the awesome God we serve! He knows when we are weak, when we are weary. 

If we just pursue what we are called to do, he is faithful to supply all our needs.

Keep pushing…You will get there!!
