The Goodness Of God
The Goodness Of God
Is God really good? Our circumstances or perspectives don’t define whether God is good or not. God is good, even when “it” isn’t. The struggle we often have is not in whether we can muster ourselves to believe that in our heads, it’s whether we feel it in our hearts.
Colossians #7
Colossians #7
According to the Apostle Paul in Colossians 2, if we think philosophy, clinging to tradition, the worship of angels or observing religious practices will produce fruit in our lives – we are dead wrong. How we act or what we know doesn’t impress God, He is interested in our heart and in our willingness to trust Him and walk in relationship with Him and obedience to Him.

Do you really trust God? Think about it for a minute before you answer. Do your actions and decisions point to a total trust in God, or do they point to your own need for control of the circumstances of your life?
Planted In His Presence
Planted In His Presence
What happens when we are planted in the presence of God? Have you ever thought that maybe God isn’t limited by the limitations you bring to the table, by your past or by your failures. When we are planted in God’s presence who we are isn’t what’s important, it is who God is that defines the potential we have.
Nothing To Work With
Nothing To Work With
God wants to do something powerful in your life. Even when you think God has nothing to work with He isn’t limited. In fact, in Isaiah God told the prophet that he was the kind of God that could make rivers on the plateaus, increase the pools of water in the valleys and plant trees in the desert. God doesn’t have limitations on what he can do in your life but He does invite you to plant and sow in the seasons that feel dry and barren so that He can bring to life the things that have died or have not even come to exist yet. God wants to take your life and cause things to grow, but you have to be willing to plant if you want to see His harvest.

But have you ever stopped to think about how odd it is that Samuel, who literally grew up inside the temple, surrounded by religious practice and following every ritual of God, didn’t know what the voice of God sounded like when He spoke to him.

Don't Worry I've Got This
Don't Worry I've Got This
Do you really believe that God has the ability to do the things you are asking him to do? Sometime we don’t believe because we don’t take time to behold. The word behold means to stand amazed and in awe. Are you making the decision to take the time to intentionally reflect on how good God has been in your life? Sometimes we lack awe and wonder because we don’t take time to behold what God has done in our lives.
