This is less of a Blog and more of a thought-provoking statement … and an excuse to use this photo I took at Rocky Mountain National Park!! 😉
Seriously though – this is something that I have been pondering over for a while now…
Are you telling God how big your mountain/problem is?
Or are you telling your mountain/problem how big your God is?
It is an age old concept, that probably many of us would tend to read right past and think, yeah I know….. but… stop and think about it for a moment. When was the last time you talked to the problem you are facing, laughed at it even, realized how minuscule it is when compared to the greatness of your God?
Also, think of your last conversation and prayer time with the Lord. What did it primarily consist of? I’m preaching to myself here folks! Yes, there are some things that we are supposed to ASK God for… but there are other things that we are never commanded to ask for or about, but rather we are given the authority to SPEAK to (circumstances, lack, pain, illness, not enough – lets read our bibles and find out our rights!).
God is so patient with us, so long-suffering, endless in mercy and loving-kindness. But I wonder sometimes,, He’s gotta be thinking- COME ON KIDS!! Will someone just use the recipe I laid out?! It is so simple after all! KNOW my will. BELIEVE me. Recognize that your ‘mountain’ is temporal and insignificant when compared to my love for you. SPEAK to it, cast it into the sea (Mark 11:22-23), then FOGETABOUDIT!! Keep you FAITH talk positive and THANK me!
Then just come and ENJOY my presence… and my presents…
Hope that helps someone!
Love you,
Kirsten
