for this I know.....
This I know, that God is for me.
Psalms 56:9
Do I truly believe this after the struggles and difficulties that I have been through? Experiencing first hand the destructive wiles of the enemy.
If He is for me why have I gone through this long, long season of frustration, struggle and continued disappointment?
Can I truly say "though He slay me thus will I trust Him" and believe that and live it as I walk upon this fallen earthly path?
Lord help me to stand steadfast in Your truth no matter what the tempests of this life may bring...for this I know that God is for me!

amazing power...
Joshua and Caleb had to endure the cost of eight other's disbelief in God’s word and power. Forty years of wandering in the desert. Forty years of waiting to enter into the promised land.
This is a lesson for us today.
Let us not allow those who do not believe in the amazing power of God and His word keep us from moving forward in the promises of God.

striving...
Is striving now consider a professional sport?
We seem to be experiencing quite a bit of striving in our day. Struggling with the reality of modern life and all of its encumbrances and entrapments. And I have quite a bit of personal experience with striving over the last several years!
The Lord tells us to cease striving...are we willing to listen? To believe by faith that He is in control and He will be exalted in all things.
Our striving can become an idol in our lives affecting our relationships with everyone, especially the Lord. Striving places our struggles and ability to resolve them (or lack thereof) above the Lord's capacity to deal with our striving - thus trusting in ourselves to have all the solutions - idol alert!
So, might we cease striving and rest in Him knowing that He cares for us and loves us with an everlasting love...and He has all of the answers!
Come, behold the amazing and mighty works of the Lord.
"Cease striving and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."
Psalms 46:10
