Memories with God
I am reading a wonderful book called "Believing God" by Beth Moore. I read something the other day that really spoke to me. I am going through what I like to call “My Foyer” period. See, I like to compare each phase of my life to a certain room of a house. My younger years-I was in a nursery, high school-living room, etc… right now I picture my self in a foyer waiting to turn the knob and step outside into the real world. Well in this period of my life I have been experiencing some uncertainties, I know God has a plan for me, a path to follow but I just want to be sure I’m on the right track. Anyways Beth Moore talked about God’s promises to us and His faithfulness in fulfilling them. She talked about how we make memories with God based on our past history of knowing God and seeing him work in our lives. She said “He has undoubtedly been faithful to you, and your active remembrance of His faithfulness yesterday will greatly increase your willingness to trust Him today.” That sentence made me stop and think about all the times God has been faithful to me. One memory was when I was looking for an internship and He found one for me, another was when I was looking for a job, He came through also. Replaying those memories, re-living the doubt and anxiety, then letting the problem out of my control and into His hands refreshed and helped strengthen my confidence and trust in the belief that God is not only faithful, but that He is Faith.
