comfort vs. character

So, I've heard someone say that God is more interested in your character than in your comfort!

I have never seen anything more true in my  life right now.

God is allowing me to be challenged to another level and man... am I uncomfortable.

I don't even see a way for this whole thing to work but, in the grand scheme of things I will look back and say..... oh, I see that that was you God and again, I will stand in wander about how great and how big my God is!!!!!

So, pray.... help me pray that I appreciate the stretch in my faith and comfort.

It is very comical to see how very small I am.... how very human I am..... how I need God so much more than he needs me and how I absolutely would not want to be without him!

Don't get me wrong- nothing is wrong, Everything is RIGHT and and RIGHT ON TIME!!!

Hope you are having a wonderfully stretching -> but blessed day!

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all you ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. Eph 3:20-21

Speak to that mountain!

Yesterday at church I heard a guy say this: 

"Its time we stop telling God how big our mountain is and start telling our mountain how BIG our God IS"!

So- so- true! I want to remind you all to speak faith to your mountain(s) today. We serve a Big God whom nothing is  impossible for. And according to the Word, that power is at work within us sooooo, what does that tell you about the authority you have in Christ????! Amazing!

And..... if it matters to you, it matters to God so don't ever feel like you are wasting God's time because your problem is not as big as so-and-so's!

And Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but, even if you say to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea, 'it will happen. "And all things you ask in prayer , believing, you will receive." Matthew 21:21-22 (nasb)

What are you asking for today? What obsticles are before you? Dont let the size of the mountain defeat or discourage you!

Believe- Speak and let God work it out according to his will!

Have a great day!
