Strength



It's remarkable how a piece of paper can be taped right next to your bed for six months, and you can still manage to hardly notice it, much less employ the principles denoted thereon... Well, let me take this opportunity then to MAKE MENTION of how awesome our God is! 
 Have you ever had the experience of God telling you to do something that seems really stretching at the time...however, when you obey, God adds a gazillion things onto that one thing that are all actually much more stretching but CRAZY good for you, and you never could have dreamt up any of it? And looking back, the first stretching thing seems like a no-brainer walk in the park, and as you continue to obey, God starts setting off miracles like fireworks exploding all around you (in a happy, colorful way...not a scary, blow-a-member-off way), and you have no idea what to do besides lie down, look at the sky, and enjoy the show? If you are a believer, I suspect the answer to this question is a resounding, "YES, YES, YES!!" because God is just awesome like that, and that is how he works with his children. He calls us to faith and obedience, and He vows his great, unchanging faithfulness and limitless strength in return. 
 Can I get an "Amen"? :)
