============
Like deer in headlights I sat in my chair stifled by
worry. I had so many “giant” situations
on my mind that flooded my thoughts I could not see a way out. I mean, I had
never been released from any position before and I hadn’t given them a reason to
this time. Bills weren’t going to pay themselves.
What about paying for college? What about retirement? And
that little old lady in some country far away from me, who is going to give to
her if I’m out of work?
- My worries blind me.
- My lack of faith blinds me.
- My trust in myself blinds me.
When I think I made it to the top on my own accord then I
get blinded to who really put me there in the first place, namely GOD. When HE
toppled my tower, I thought HE was mad at me because I was blind to what HE was
really doing in my life. HE was refocusing me to look at HIM.
- When I worry I remember to “love the LORD.”
- When I lose my faith I remember to “live as HE wants me to live.”
- When I get suspicious of GOD I remember to “remain true to HIM.”
It was GOD who cleared the way for me to reach the heights I
rose to and it is up to HIM to keep me low or raise me up again and again. It’s
not that my desires don’t matter to HIM, all that matters is that I love and
respect HIM enough to allow HIS decisions to be final. I can find relief from
worries by following GOD.
- Are you worried?
- Are you facing a “giant” situation?
- Do you think your “giant” is larger than GOD?
- Won’t you stop thinking about your “giant” and look at how powerful GOD really is?
