My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26
Such a timely reminder! My flesh and my heart may run the range of emotions, joys and pain, mountain tops and time in the valley...yet, through it all, the unchangable I AM is still my Rock and my foundation!
The word says that we should not be anxious at all, but rather bring all our requests to God through prayer, with thanksgiving, and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will keep our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7). Those who know God’s name will trust in Him, because he has NEVER forsaken anyone who seeks Him (Psalm 9:10), If we cling to God, even in the midst of our worst, most unfathomable struggles, our faith becomes real! And that is a reward all by itself!
Do not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time you will receive a harvest. Remember that all our struggles are for our own good, and for the testing and refining of our faith (James 1). Do not be discouraged or without hope when everything, including your heart, fails. You know it is faith when it is all you have.
It is in the testing of our Faith that the rubber hits the road, and we finally discover where our hearts truly are, where our assurance comes from, the Person we cling to, the promises we hold true to.
Fact, Faith, Feeling.
Fact - God Loves me, Jesus died for me, and He has a perfect plan for me!
Faith - In omnipotent Lord Jesus, Righteousness, Faithfulness and His promise of abundant life.
Feelings - Not swayed by mere emotions, but finding pure Joy in the Lord who never fails! No circumstance is bigger than my God! Feelings will be put under submission to the Lord's truth.
