So, to recap the week: On Monday in my Fab 5 Mtg. (you can laugh, we do) I learned not to let desire become expectation to the point of do or die. On Tuesday I learned to pace myself during the heat of the day: my thermostat busted and my body overheated. As my body began to shut down w/out explanation I thought of many things. On Wed. after my brain and body had a chance to kiss and make up I evaluated many things in my life, slowly! God clearly presented a thought to me while still sipping juice and topping off on potassium:
"I've been called to do the impossible by the immeasurable who lives in me."
Since God lives in me & His power and might are immeasurable, that makes the impossible seem reasonable.
Still too wordy? If God is for you, who can be against you? Are you acting alone or with God's blessing? ...I've always believed that the right question will flush out the best answer.
You may feel overwhelmed these days: if so - inquire of God about His desire and hope for you and how He can help you move forward in your faith and understanding of who He is and how He works in people's lives.
Deep Breaths. Lots of prayer. Find a trustworthy friend to share all. Read the Bible. Simmer down.
On Thurs. a friend came to hang out with me and confirmed I was going to live!
On Friday my wife and another friend went as a team (while other friends and family watched the kids, thank you all!!) and cooked for the Light for the Lost Dinner in Parma, OH. "As a team" makes all the difference!
Today I am glad for friends, family, truth, and am moving forward in my faith due to a week of running hard, stopping fast, starting slow, counting blessings, and looking ahead to a bright and exciting future w/ The Immeasurable!
And thank you for a great sermon yesterday morning. So glad that you are doing better!
