Mark 9:24 (NKJV)

… “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

Are you having one of those seasons? We all have them and know them well; it’s that kind of season where you are kind of a “Nelly Negative” and your entire outlook is negative or pessimistic. There’s always a down side to your great news and nothing is quite ever as good as it could be. While we would prefer to not camp in this place…let’s face it, sometimes we just stay in this proverbial raincloud and let our emotions outweigh what we know to be truth. Today, let’s get out of the place of sad mittens, “Everything is bad and God is ignoring me” or “It will happen for everyone else, but God will not bless me in that way” kind of attitude and remember who we are dealing with here!

God will not withhold any good thing from us. So guess what…if we don’t have it yet or it’s not time, it may not be a good thing for us right now.

Also, please note all the orchestration that takes place to make things come to fruition that has absolutely nothing to do with us. God is working, moving and directing all in the manner that is fit for your particular situation. Just hang tight and grow in godly character until you get to the blessing you are waiting for.

And finally, admit that you are having a hard time believing, just as the father did in this area of scripture. He wanted to believe Jesus would do what He was able to do and heal his son; but at the same time the father could also see what his son was going through in that moment and it looked a little impossible. Let God know that you need Him to help you believe…He already knows anyway, might as well stop trying to keep up appearances!

I pray that we will allow God to work in and through our lives, that we will cling to His word so that we can believe that with God all things are possible; and finally I hope that we can come to the Father and say, “Help my unbelief” in the times when it just seems like you cannot believe on your own. Keep praying, trusting, believing (or asking help if you can’t) and waiting on the Lord…He will do what He says!

Have a fabulous evening as you seek the Lord.

Listen to this song and let the Lord be all that you need – then trust and believe that He is Who He says He is and will do what He promised!! Have my sparkly-blessed week and remember that this is the year of #greatexpectations so you can believe for big, amazing and miraculous things!

Luke 1:45(NKJV)

Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”
