Believing is the Key

"Everything is possible for one who believes." - Mark 9:23

Ever read those exact words and just say to yourself - "I believe!' - without ever taking the time out and reflecting to see if you in fact believe..... I think we all do that.

I certainly do and that is the topic of this post. Sometimes I'm in the rut and deep. deep in my emotions and moments of uncertainty. Even in moments of scares (and yes us men do get scared still), moments of anger, and we end up doubting.

That counts as moments of unbelieve. I am guilty of it. I am guilty of it now. I am just overwhelmed, and I fall into disbelief by default. This verse today made me pause. Made me take it and reflect because I am not doing myself justice by unbelieving. Job despite his process and the opposition he was facing he still.... BELIEVED.

Lord, help me at this very moment. Look at my heart and look at my emotions. Please cleanse me with your Holy Spirit and help drive away these emotions that are moving up to my mind and causing me to disbelieve. I want to believe in you and not doubt you. Help me, Lord! I need you today, right now, in the middle of these emotions to provide me with your certainty and peace. In Jesus name, I pray, amen!

Blessings,
