I went to church tonight, and not really looking to get anything out of it. Yeah, its bad but at least I am telling the truth. Bryan Crawford was preaching tonight, because Pastor Mike was in Israel. I was not in there for most of the preaching, but got the tale end of it all, and boy was it something I needed. I was sitting there in awe of what God was speaking through Bryan.
He was talking about Elijah, and him praying and waiting. See Elijah prayed they would have rian and he could here it coming, so he sent his servant, not once, not twice, not even three times, but seven different times. He had faith and knew God was sending it. Before you pray you have to beleive God is going to send it.
Keith and I have been going through a lot lately. We are in a financial bind and its only God that can bring us through for sure. Its just not there, and we know its not. We believe God has Keith in the place where he is, but the bills still have to get paid. How you say? Only God knows. See we as humans dont like the unknown or at least I certainly dont. I like to have everything in a certain order, and it certainly isnt right now. I like to have things paid on time, and not late. I am realizing that even in that, that my credit in this world is not as important as my credit in him. There is no comparison.
At this point tonight, I am listening to a song from the Gaithers called, "Faith unlocks the door", and its a powerful song. Its talking about that Prayer is the key to heaven, but our faith is what unlocks the door. We can speak words in our prayers, but unless we beleive that God can do it, and not put God in a box, it want happen. This reminds me of a quote, "Actions speak louder than words". Our actions within our prayers and having faith is what makes the difference. We can speak a thosand words, but unless there is faith behind it, then there is no use.
God wants us to have faith in him. So for me tongiht I am making a decision not to be defeated any more. Yes, I have felt this way lately, and I admit it. I have learned if I change my attitude and just praise him through all of the unknown, that he will be with me, and provide for our needs. Do I know how? Nope, but I am excited to really see how he comes through. I am sure that I will be amazed for what he will do is going to be awesome. Yes, I am expecting and know that God will come through for me.
God Bless, Kelly
