God is faithful ♡


Sometimes the cloudiness of life blurs our vision. There are seasons when our faith is strong and our hope is solid. But then there are seasons when we walk through fogs, consumed with doubt and fear.

What I'm learning and I'm sure will continue to learn is that God is faithful in these foggy seasons. When it seems like your prayers are going unanswered, when it seems like you're all alone without a helper or comforter, when it seems like its never going to end or your hope is deferred; please know that God is in this season with you. 

One of my favorite quotes is the "The teacher is always silent during the test". How true is that and when applied to our journey with Christ, it seems to be even more true. 

I'm convinced that seasons when God seems quiet and doesn't seem to be moving in your life and your prayers seem to be going unanswered is when the complete opposite is taking place. 

This year more than ever before I've had to reread past journal entries that I wrote to remind myself that God is indeed FAITHFUL. And what I've found is that in these journal entries I would cry out to the Lord asking if He hears me, if He sees me. Broken and confused, I was hopeless and really seeking His voice, His presence and His love. Now looking back, little did I know in those seasons, He indeed was speaking, His presence was evident and His love was steadfast. 

So many times we wonder where is God, what is He doing, and why. When a lot of the times we are too consumed with our problem to hear Him speak to our hearts. Difficult moments should force us to be still and sit quiet at His feet. In those quiet moments is when we're able to hear Him speak to our discouraged hearts. This is why we should rejoice in the fog because the fog forces us to slow down and seek Him.

God is faithful. Every situation or circumstance that you are facing is not out of His reach or provision. He is sovereign. Please know that you are not alone, you are heard, seen and most importantly, LOVED.

If you're feeling restless right now, I challenge you to sit at His feet and cry out to Him with your cares and worries. He already knows what you're dealing with but invites you to have this conversation with Him about it because HE CARES FOR YOU! Never stop going to the Lord with your worries or fears even when years pass you by and you're wondering if He heard you. He heard you the FIRST TIME you prayed. He knows.
But He wants you to know something too, He's got it. He's got you.

Because He's faithful ♡

Vulnerability is Strength ♡

2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on m e. That is one of my favorite verses! Gods Grace is sufficient enough to carry us through whatever life throws at us. It is difficult to be vulnerable sometimes and express that we are struggling. Its easier to boast about our strengths rather than our weaknesses. It can be uncomfortable and maybe a little scary to admit that things aren't going well and reach out and ask for help. --- One thing that Im continously learning is that my dependence has to be in Christ. Everything in this world is fleeting, vain and unreliable. Paul knew what hardship looked like, I read about him and wonder how he was able to write letters and encourage others when he was suffering tremendously himself. But God. -- SUFFICIENT = ENOUGH, CONSTANTLY AVAILABLE....

Let yourself be loved ♡

"So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us."  1 John 4:16 Love. We all crave it, we all desire it. We seek after it sometimes in all the wrong places. Yet, it's right in front of us, pursuing us constantly with no hesitations.  When I think about how I've sought after love in the wrong men. How I've sought after love in the wrong spaces and even how I manage to push people that I know love me away out of fear. To know that a perfect being loves me so purely and so much that He chose to die on the cross for me lights a fire in me that I have never felt. To know that He chooses to love me through my fears is everything to me. The last blog I wrote about love and I normally don't talk about this subject publicly that much but for whatever reason this season is making me press into it. To hear about love, want it and seek after it is one thing but to realize that it's already present and active in my life hits differently....

Jesus loves YOU.

Sometimes when I hear something over and over again it starts to become redundant and not as valuable to me as the first time I heard it. I want to expound on that for a moment to remind you of what that means. Jesus loves you. Romans 5:8 But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners , Christ died for us. We are conditioned to feel like we have to work and earn love. As much as we desire to give and receive unconditional love it is a hard task for us as humans. We are conditioned to expect things in return when we give anything to others. This is why the Bible talks about denying self so much because that is exactly what Christ did 2000 years ago for us. While we were dead in our sins, He died for us. Philippians 2:4-8 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness...
