Promise!

Black And White Rainbow

I am fortunate that I work for an Incredible Christian Charity The Message Trust. Every day we start our day with morning prayers and each Tuesday we have an extended prayer time.

This Morning we were asked to think of someone who we admire, someone who has influence our Christian walk.  I don’t actually like the idea of comparing myself to anyone else and looking at why I admire another Christian, but this one was easy

The person I chose has gently challenged me on my walk especially recently and has ultimate faith that God will provide.

But what challenged me about this was that I know I don’t have ultimate faith that God will provide, I worry and fret about certain , especially financial.

But as I was discussing this I realised that Actually God Has never let me or my family down. Even through my doubts and worries he has provided exactly what we need and when we need it.

The slightly guilty feeling I felt about doubting God quickly turned to joy, a slight feeling of pride in God and and incredible feeling of gratefulness – as the realisation of his provision set in.

The bible is littered with promises from God and our only task is to believe!

What do you think about comparing yourself to others?

If you are ok with it, whoa and why?

God Bless!

22 If  believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”

Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
