When I’m Inadequate
Do you ever feel like you’re not enough? Either you don’t have enough or no matter what you do, it isn’t sufficient. Feelings of uselessness threaten to overwhelm your tender heart. Confusion clouds your thoughts because you had prayed about this. God is able to do exceedingly above and beyond anything we can ask or think, but not this time. Why can’t I ever get it right?
Trusting in His Promises and His Presence
Undeserved and unkind words stung. Just as fleshly weapons of retaliation began to take flight from my lips, I stopped. This person isn’t my enemy, but I know who is. An enemy that I can only fight with spiritual weapons. Ephesians 6:10-11 says:
Prayerlessness and the Holy Spirit
My guide dog, Iva hastened me through Walmart, with perfection. She didn’t bump me into anyone or anything, until I felt a hand on my shoulder and the familiar voice of my husband.
“I don’t know where she is taking you, but she stopped following me and brought you to the front of the store.”
My husband led me and an unhappy Iva back to our cart. Why did Iva stop following him?
Taking Hold of the Abundant Life
Have you ever felt the abundant life lingers just beyond your reach? Does it feel like a blessing you’ve never acquired? When I applied for a guide dog from Guiding Eyes for the Blind, they called to inform me they had a dog for me. Great! Put her on a UPS truck and ship her down to Virginia (just kidding). No, it doesn’t work like that. I had to travel to New York and train with my precious Iva for three weeks. She was mine, but I had to take possession of her.
Waiting On a Prayer
I don’t wait well. Can you relate? I prayed for God to restore the hearing in my left ear which had occurred from Sudden Sensory Neuro Hearing Loss. Wait! That’s all I heard from God for six months.
No healing. No urgency to get hearing aids. Even when I found hearing aids at a reduced price, God still said, “Wait.”
In Acts chapter one, the disciples demonstrated how we should wait on our answers to prayer.
