God is. everywhere.

working through a lot of different ways.

and if you open your eyes to see it, you’ll realize that He’s been there all along.

& i didn’t have to go all the way to houston, tx to realize that.

.

.

but God humored me,

took me there (to texas) to show me what He’s been trying to tell me for so long:

1) that I don’t believe Him….a lot

2) that WE (God & I) need to talk. more.

3) i have NO idea what love is

.

.

1) that I don’t believe Him….a lot

the thing is, i’d like to think that i believe God. i mean, i would certainly say that i believe in Him. so, you know how some people have a problem believing that God exists, or made the world, or blah blah blah. nope - i’m not one of those people.

i believe that God is real in the same way i believe that today is Friday. it is, and will always be, a fact of life to me.

.

but that’s different from believing Him. you know, in romans 8:28 where it says, “and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God….”. 

WHAT?!

WHAT?!

all things? you mean when both of my cousins die in a car accident in one day? when i have no job, no money? when all of my closest friend’s lives are literally falling apart….

WHAT?!

so, You mean that You’re working out my life?

that I don’t need to worry about a thing?

hmmmmm………interesting……

.

so….clearly………

i need faith. 

“I believe; help my unbelief!”  - - Mark 9:24

Vimbo’s [my] prayer - - Amazing God. You’ve literally shaped my life so dramatically. Help me to not allow doubt to take over. We’ve come too far Papa.

to believe not only that God exists

but that His Word is true

[like literally….take Him at His Word]

“God is not a man, so he does not lie.” - - Numbers 23:19

Vimbo’s [my] prayer - - Amazing God. Help me believe you more than I believe my own doubt.

but not only those things…..

i gotta believe that God is who He says He is.

[sooo….i suddenly got lazy! :P i’ll finish #2 & 3 in another post. 

HAPPY SABBATH]
