GOD IS FAITHFUL

No poem today but just thought I would share this:

This seems to be a regular occurence these days but anytime I'm worried about anything at all I get reassurance within 24 hours. Whether its through words at the campus fellowship or church, through friends or God speaking to me directly. I don't know why I'm always suprised because He has already said certain things over my life and in Isaiah 55:11 He says His word shall not return to Him void but shall accomplish that which He purposes and shall succeed in the thing for which He sent it. So in other words if He says I'm going to be comfortable in life and not struggle with my finances why then am I so worried about finding a job, I should know that all I have to do is ask God for the right job to be reserved for me and for Him to give me a clear sign which one it is. I went to a graduate fair yesterday and I can honestly say it was quite useless but I know God is making a way for me. In Phillipians 1:6 It says that we can be confident of the fact that He who began a good work in us will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

So why is it I find it so hard to surrender everything to Him and to cast all my burdens although I read verses like this over and over again and I claim to love God, surely then I should trust Him right? Hmmm that's something I'm dealing with, I'm realising that in the times when my faith is lacking that's when I need the Holy Spirit to comfort me and remind me of the word and I need Jesus to intercede on my behalf because without faith it is impossible to please God.

I want to please God I really do, but sometimes I almost lose track of the Holy Spirit forgetting that He's the only one who can help me to keep my faith. But thank God He puts me right back on track because He is so faithful! Even when I give up on myself He never gives up on me!

He has been so good to me and shown me so much love so the least I can do is trust Him and while I'm waiting for answers to prayer I'll read His word and speak positive things into my life as if they were accomplished, "Since we have the same spirit of faith according to what has been written, "I believed, and so I spoke", we also believe, and so we also speak" 2 Corinthians 4:13.

Be encouaged!

Hebrews 10:23
"Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful
