Hey, I pray all is well in this new year. If
your year has got off to a rocky start, it's okay. I think sometimes we
put too much pressure going into a new year. We miss a workout, we
forget we are on a diet, or we don't follow through with some goals and
then we just go back to our same routine we were doing from the year
before.
I want to encourage you on today to face whatever
discouragement and doubt you are facing. I know today in the Christian
world there are those Christians who aren't really Christians. If you
know what I mean. They are the ones going through the motion. Wanting
change but really don't want change because they aren't doing anything
to change.
I ran across this article: "Christians Won't
Understand My Doubt" -
http://convergemagazine.com/breaking-church-10452/ and I want you to read this story. I believe many of us face doubt, we lose hope and pick
up self hatred when life is not going our way or God is not answering
our prayers on our time. Even if you haven't felt this way, I am sure
you know others who have or are.
It's time to pray and
allow God to help us figure out why we disconnect, go on roller coaster
rides in our faith and fight the same battles over and over. I don't
know about you but God didn't save me just to barely make it by. Granted
we are going to have seasons where they are harder then others but even
then, He said is burden is light. I stand on His word and promises. My
prayer for you, is for you to start doing the same. Change, growth and
breakthrough is here!
I would love to hear back from you.
How is life going? How is your walk with God? How can I be praying for
you? What questions do you have about your faith?
Feel
free to respond whenever you get the chance. Love you. Hang in there and
stay encouraged! This is your year to change your life around for the
best!
Jeremiah 29:11-13
"For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me."
