Believing God....

This week I started a Beth Moore study with Maria.. it has started fantastic ... I have watched the video twice.. considering actually watching it a third time because it is truly is worth watching. The first time I watched I did not receive as much as the second time. That second time so many things spoke to me...

Like the one thing she stated is how the Lord desires to bless but with blessing we must be obedient. And believe in Him...
Are we worthy of his blessing? Can He trust us with it?

We have a 5 statements-
God is who he says he is
God can do what he says he can do
I am who God says I am
I can do all things through Christ
God's Word is alive and active in me.

She gave this one story.. where she is walking her dog and a head she sees to ducks sitting in this small puddle. She looks up and just over this small mound is a gorgeous pond and she thinks, " now why are those ducks sitting in that small puddle when there is this gorgeous pond just a few feet away" She says she knows our heavenly father is saying the same thing... " umm hello you are sitting in a puddle.. look up there is a beautiful pond awaiting. HELLO you are sitting in a puddle" ( of course this does not justice to her facial expressions and southern accent but you get the point.)

We spend so much time Not Believing the Word which is why we struggle on living the WORD.. if you dont BELIEVE IT then how can you possibly live it in your life. You spend  time battling the tanglible here and now against the that was then philosophy. Part of us truly living for CHRIST is BELIEVING.. I am so excited to see what the Lord will do in my life these next few weeks as I seek HIS WORD, to truly BELIEVING GOD and making my reality and my theology be one in my life.

In Christ
