All Things Are Possible

Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. Mark 9:23

I thought I was going to write about prayer today but I came across this verse and completely forgot everything else on my mind. Jesus is talking to a father of a child in this verse - the child's father replies to Jesus very honestly that he believes but he needs some help with his unbelief. 

Think about it....IF you can just believe.....all things are possible. Having a little trouble believing? You won't be the first - He can help you too. Whatever you need to do today - remember ALL things are possible IF you believe. Go have a great day!

Call Home for Help

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. Ephesians 3:12

We have to be braver than we think we can be, because God is constantly call us to be more than we are. Madeleine L. Engle

Whatever you are being called to do today remember you have direct access to God and you can go with boldness and confidence.  When my kids need help with their cars they call their father - I'm no help with that at all, other than to lend a listening ear - but they have direct access to their dad with their cell phones so they call him and he can help fix things. We can do the same with our heavenly father when we have problems and worries.Who better to help us than the one who made heaven and earth? He's not too busy for your smallest request - in fact, He's patiently waiting to hear from you. Remember pray home for help today - I know you're going to have a great day!

Perfect Rest

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28

Jesus is extending an invitation to anyone who needs rest. He's talking to the weary, tired, worried, burdened, suffering, saddened, worn, grieving, and over-worked. Do you fall into any of those categories? Are you tired of working things out for yourself? 

Let's look at what is NOT in this verse.....
When you do all you can do - Come to Me.
When you worry all you can - Come to Me.
The people who have it all together - Come to Me.
I will only listen to the people who are perfect so they can- Come to Me.
When you have something big - Come to Me.

You get the idea - I hope you find true rest today. CC
