Feeling Like An Outcast? Yet Still You Will Rise

We are may find ourselves in situations that cause us to feel inadequate, inferior, or like an outcast. Those moments are necessary and apart of the process. God does these things to draw us closer to Him and develop our resilient faith. Being set apart comes with a cost, may we not magnify the problem more the Lord. Let us avoid saying why me Lord ? And start saying what do you want me to do? What lessons are you trying to teach me? We shall rise above all odds and grow stronger in the sight of God.

My Soul Waits For Thee Silently

Have you ever find yourself in great silence that allows you to experience such sweet rest in God which brings forth divine peace? I have and let me tell you, it’s one of the best experience ever. It’s one where the cares of this world or those repeated struggles doesn’t become a bother anymore. It’s one where we respond by faith rather than fear, we worship rather than worry, we pray consistently rather than complain, we rejoice in the small things rather than becoming depressed, we see God’s mighty hands at work rather than becoming overwhelmed and throw in the towel. I could go on and on. I do want us to remember though, our response is what will lead to our outcome whether it be victorious or we in despair. Resting in God creates an avenue for deep trust that establishes a strong connection with Him where nothing can break such bond. It also allows us to give up control and develop a heart posture that surrenders everything to God knowing that He is the one who can fix our problems or cater to our everyday needs. God is our refuge and strength. God is our rock. God is our salvation. No matter what goes on in our lives, may we know that sitting in His presence will ease the chaos or unnecessary worries.

The Beauty Of Abiding In Christ

The love of Christ is so rich and pure. It wraps arounds us just like the vine on the tree. Christ reminds us in John 15 that He is the true vine and we are the branches therefore it’s essential for us to abide in Him. Abiding in Christ is establishing a deep intimate relationship with Him that ignites our passion to stay connected in His presence which will fuel our purpose. Once we are continuously secured in God’s presence there’s nothing that can take away our peace, joy, strength, grace and trust in the almighty God. Being connected to the true vine (Jesus Christ) helps us to rest in God’s grace and continuous love. Pastor John Piper shared an analogy in his message on abiding in Christ that “ if a branch abides or remains attached to the vine in such a way that it is receiving all that it has to give it illustrates believing or trusting Jesus and resting in Him to meet all our needs. Without Christ we can do nothing. He always wants a relationship with us. Not one when it’s convenient to us or let’s say we need a breakthrough or healing right now so we try to connect with Him for that moment. No, abiding in Christ means we puts Him first at all times.
