Getting real with God…how often do we really open our hearts in faith to God? It’s not like He doesn’t already know, but somehow we think we can hide our deepest secrets from the Almighty Living Father! But what will really happen if we actually bring those secrets…that pain…that fear and lay them at the feet of Jesus? Not just say “here it is, please fix it”, but sincerely, with deepest heartfelt gratitude in KNOWING He will take it, and mold you with it. Will you accept His response? Are you afraid of what He will do?
John 11:40 …“Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?”
Where do we get off thinking that God can’t handle our biggest problems? Or even worse thinking that the smallest details of our lives aren’t worth His time! He created the universe from the color of your eyes to placing each and every star in the sky….He loved us so much that He made the ultimate sacrifice just so He – God could be with us here on earth and in Heaven someday! That wasn’t just for us, but for Him too! What we perceive as small problems or small sins separate us from His Holiness. So yes, Jesus wants us to give Him everything so that He can be near us, bless us, and work in us.
John 15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
God chose YOU! John 15:16 sends chills down my spine. God chose me…the Creator of the Universe chose ME…He chose YOU! So why, would we hide from Him? Why wouldn’t we trust Jesus to take our life and use it to glorify God.?
John 14:13-14 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
Thank you Polly…I was stuck and you gave me inspiration!
