Philippians 4:10-14
10 How I praise the Lord that you are concerned about me again. I know you have always been concerned for me, but you didn’t have the chance to help me. 11 Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. 12 I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. 13 For I can do everything through Christ,[c] who gives me strength. 14 Even so, you have done well to share with me in my present difficulty.
I saw a sign today that said “Faith makes it possible…not easy”.
That was so appropriate for the day.
After my post about blessings, I’ve been getting hit with “attacks from the enemy” and yet I continue on in faith. Like the sign said “not easy” but yet with faith it is possible. So… I do what I do every day, stand in faith for His blessings, guidance, wisdom, protection, favor for myself, family, loved ones, those who don’t know Him that one day they would come to know Him and experience the blessings.
At the same time I stand in faith, I also have learned to be content with where I am and what I have. It hasn’t been easy, that’s for sure…again with the “easy” aspect. I’ve finally, after years, figured out to be content with the now because God has something bigger in store and while we can only see where we currently are, He knows what lies ahead for us. So, we have to stand in faith, trusting for blessings and continue to be content with what we have in the here and now, knowing that He provides all our needs. So, if you’re stuck and not sure why things are the way they are…don’t worry…go to Him, pray, seek guidance and trust in Him that the now isn’t necessarily what it appears to be.
So very true. I’ve come to the same revelation recently.
