Many Christians fail to realize just how much we are capable of achieving because we do not fully understand the strength and wisdom available to us through Christ Jesus. Since reading, 'Living Free In Christ', by Neil Anderson, I have realized that there are so many truths in God's Word that we just gloss over and don't really believe that they refer to us.
Take Philippians 4:13, 'I can do all things through Him who gives me strength'. That means you and I can do all things, not just those brave, outgoing people of the world. With the help of Our Saviour, we are able to do great things but remember, these things are to glorify God, not man.
Romans 12:3 tells us that we each have been allotted a measure of faith and all we have to do is grab that great gift and believe that we can accomplish the things that we believe God wants us to do. He will never ask us to do anything that we are not capable of achieving and He will always fit us for whatever He asks of us.
Heavenly Father, I just thank You from the bottom of my heart, for the great gift of faith that strengthens me and allows me to accomplish great things to Your glory. Help me to never doubt that You love me as your daughter. Thank You for the special gift of caring for children and the elderly which has brought me closer to You. I especially thank You Father, for the gift of eternal life in Christ Jesus which was only made possible through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Your One and Only Son. Amen/

  1. Hey Sue,
    Incredible insights and words. Thanks for sharing them. I seem to be having a similar "zap" of God into my life and as I was reading what you'd written, I was nodding and "Amen" ing it all. Again, I thank you for sharing them. May God continue to lift you up and to reveal his plan for your future and that you will have peace about it. Love Anne

  3. Sue, I was here the other day, typed out my welcome message, etc., clicked on 'preview', then on 'publish'. Just then there was a glitch in the blogger system. I got an error message and lost the entire comment. I'm glad you saw my reply to you on your comment on my blog.

    I haven't been able to get here again. Things are pretty overwhelming at my house. I hope to post on Grandma's Musing this evening.

    The bottom line is you're doing a great job on your brand new blog. Your posts are a bright light in the blogosphere.

    May God bless every word of Praise you speak or write.
