My circumstances at this time, and situations I've found myself in, both due to my ignorance and being afflicted by others (the adversary), are not so great. That's putting it as mildly as I can manage. I'm in a terrible position at the moment and there have been days when I thought I couldn't handle it. But for the most part, I've been spending my time renewing my mind to those truths in God's Word that completely override the the worst thoughts one can have. Such as: Jeremiah 32:27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me? and; II Corinthians 3:5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; and: II Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
God is our sufficiency in everything. He is our heavenly Father. He loves us. We just have to believe that. There's no way He'll let us down because He can't lie, He's all love, He's all light and if that's not enough: I Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. He'll make a way for us to escape the troubling situation or circumstance to the point where we can bear it. And we're not the only one suffering the attacks. Isn't that neat? He tells us we're not the only ones that get the pressure, and then tells us that He'll make a way out for us so we won't have to suffer. AND there's so much more that God has made available to us through the power He's given us and His Word.
WOW what an amazing Father we have! How can we wallow or worry or doubt when we have everything we could ever need from a Father that is so far beyond awesome?
Today I've been bathing in the magnificent truths in God's Word and realizing that no matter what the world throws at me, regardless of what kinds of stupid mistakes I've made or make, my Heavenly Father is there for me. He will never leave or forsake me {Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.}. As long as I trust in Him, believe His Word and maybe cast my care on Him {1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.}, He'll take care of things. He'll show me the way {Proverbs 3: 5&6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.}. He'll supply all my need {Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. - Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.}, and I will bask in the magnificence of His love, His mercy, His power and His grace. I love you Daddy!
