Can I just say how much I love my church family! I am so blessed to be part of such an amazing, passionate, loving church! If you are searching for a church home, please check out Highpoint City Church. Come for a visit and see for yourself!
Ok enough with the shameless plug. Service was awesome today (it is every Sunday). The subject today was faith. I don't want to go over the details of the sermon but it got me thinking more about where I am at with my faith. Faith means trust in a person or thing. I started thinking, "how much do I trust Jesus with ALL my needs, problems, etc."? I have to say it's not where I want it to be, BUT I am getting there! It takes practice and discipline to completely trust 100% in someone I've never seen. That's faith friends! I find that as I trust Him more and more, He always shows up! In some amazingly great way, He is there! Sometime right in the nick of time.
So if you are going thru a particularly rough time and it feels like nothing is going to ever go right or there's no fixing it...try to give Jesus more trust. He knows what you are going thru, He just wants you to give it to Him and trust Him. I know it may sound corny but just say to yourself, "I trust you God." And say it over and over again until you BELIEVE it! Let it sink in!
I've been thinking about a person I know who has hit rock bottom. She's gone thru some serious heartache and pain. She's seriously hurting. She thinks something is wrong with her. After briefly turning to Jesus she decided to walk away for whatever reason. I don't know why and it doesn't matter, I am trusting Jesus will bring her back. I am praying Jesus will bring her back. And I am praying for those who need more trust.
Sweet Jesus, I pray for those who are hurting and fearing their circumstances. I pray for them to have the courage and strength to trust in YOU and to keep on going. Show them Your grace and your love. Thank you for always having my back, Dad..In Jesus' name. Amen!
Peace, Love & Blessings!
Nikki
