Built FORD Tough

Gods unconditional forgiveness and Love. And not the kind of forgiveness that says "i dont care what you did" or "dont tell me…i forgive you anyways"…but the kind that says "Yes, i know you did this. I forgive you and love you".  It is because of the fact that He know’s every aspect of my life and CHOOSES to love me. And because of that, i have hope of being able to also forgive. See, if you live long enough you become a bit jaded (some at earlier ages than others) and what i have found is that while most of my "issues" in life happened as a child, it is in my adulthood that i have become so jaded by it. Some chalk that up to children being resilient or unable to understand whats going on. What i saw so clearly today as God spoke to my heart is that its not that as children we are oblivious, but that we TRUST so much more in God. We believe Him…not just IN Him, but as children we actually believe every promise and take Him at his word. As we get older we try more and more to control situations, make things work and so on. What God reminded me of today is that my becoming synical or jaded is a choice i have made to not trust HIM! I have effectively allowed Satan into my life in the little ways. He reminds us of what once was and keeps us prisoner in what could have been. All because we fail to trust that God has  a plan. Praise God…He has started today breaking me of that. Please pray for me as I try to trust with faith like a child.

Jesus said to him "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes". Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears "LORD, I BELIEVE! HELP MY UNBELIEF!!!"

Mark 9:23, 24

This is the cry of my heart.
