Looking Good and Feeling Fine

Share Article

 

Sometimes from your viewpoint

People “look” as if they have no need or desire

For things to change

To believe for them

Especially if its our spouse

Is difficult

Because they look and act

As if the road they have chosen

Is the only option for them

And consequently the only option for you

 

But this is what you have to understand

And what Faith is all about

It’s all about what you don’t see

It’s about what God is doing in them and around them that he isn’t showing you

And trust me they are not going to tell you either

Honestly God is doing things in and around you too

That you cannot see

 

You must believe that

Jesus can make those

Who look full

Very hungry

Jesus can make those

Who seem healthy and without needs

Become very needy

Jesus can make those

Who look confident

Lose their confidence

But

The most wonderful thing

Is this

Jesus can also

Make those who are

Sick

Completely whole

And those who are

Weak

Very Strong

 

Hebrews 11:1

Now Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

 

God gave me this verse October 28th, 2007 when things were not “looking” good for us!!!

Romans 15:1-6

We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves. Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. For even Christ did not please himself but, as it is written: “The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.” For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Now as I have said before I do not know how this is suppose to play out in your life. What ‘bearing the failings of the weak’ looks like for you but God knows exactly what its suppose to look like. May God’s power rest on you as endure until you see absolute complete wholeness in your family’s life! May he give you clear direction and encouragement through his precious word!

 

God is with you! I know He his!!!
