GOD HAS BIGGER PROBLEMS TO DEAL WITH THAN YOURS!!!
Was the remark I got from someone who is sincerely trying to help me get over my constant falls with an issue I get so crazy and depressed over. I explained that the stumbles have been good for me, though, because they’ve PUSHED me directly into God’s arms, where He seems to be right there waiting on me with such love and attention as if I’m the only person in the world.
“Mom, are you having a mental breakdown?” my daughter, Julie, asked yesterday. I looked at her and immediately knew it was time for me to lock up in my bathroom and have a time-out with God. And like I said, He was there waiting for me. I decided to go to our family’s website, werollwithgod.com, to hear from Him, and believe it or not, my two most recent posts did the trick, especially this portion that I read twice:
““Brothers and sisters, think about the things that are good and worthy of praise. Think about the things that are true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected.” – Philippians 4:8
In other words, Nik, STOP ALL THIS CRAZY THINKING!!! YOU HAVE SO MUCH GOOD YOU CAN FOCUS ON INSTEAD!!! The reason why I was so sure this was God was because so many times I’ve fallen in this same area, and God would figure out some way for this EXACT verse to show up, and I would just smile with Him. ‘Ok, God, I get the message, AGAIN!’ The crazy lady immediately went away.”
Phew, the crazy lady went away AGAIN, ‘Nik, you have so many positive things to focus on. But, I decided to stay a little longer asking God for a page number to go to out of our 53 pages on the site, and when I saw July 15 at the bottom, I quickly went to page 15 and look what incredibly showed up in the very top post on that page:
“…It was my Therapist (God) letting me know that He sees me, and He is with me to help me go through any situation that comes my way. Heehaw! And about these ugly, negative thoughts that plague me, He constantly reminds me of this ONE verse:
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” – Philippians 4:8 (NIV)
Yes, my Therapist! (SMILE)”
See the sweetness of God!!! For Him to take me directly there was no coincident! THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT HE IS AVAILABLE TO US ALL 24 HOURS A DAY!!! It’s up to us to develop a relationship with Him so that we have ears to hear Him, and eyes to see Him.
I got to work, and my manager surprisingly says, “You’re the strongest person I know! You’re the closest I’ve ever seen anyone with God.” And believe it or not, it’s these constant falls I have to thank for that. I go running to God, no shame! His love casts away my fears, worries, and stresses, little by little, and I’m continually reminded of who I am and, most importantly, WHOSE I AM – God’s SUPERGIRL, baby! Don’t miss out on a relationship with Him!!!
