A. How many of you believe God exist? How many of you believe God is almighty? How many of you believe God is good? How many of you believe that God’s love is greater than your own? That God’s ways are wiser than our ways? That His thoughts are higher than our thoughts? That God’s strength is stronger than your own strength? How many of you believe these statements about God are absolutely true?
Then what’s the problem?
God does not desire for us to come into His presence only to see our stumbling blocks of sin or to hear the walls of concerns or doubt that keep us from believing.
God moves in our lives and draws us to His presence so that we might leap over the stumbling blocks and demolish every wall; that we would live in the fullness of life that He desires and find victory and hope, joy and peace coming alive within us. That the song of soul would shift from the pain of denial to the wonder of His glory.
Loving God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength does not mean to withdraw and find a safe distance from God where our faith can be comfortable with whatever we want it to be.
Loving God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength means we trust and believe that God is more powerful than our weakness and God is wiser than our deepest thoughts or greatest questions or concerns.
Loving God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength means hearing the whispers of the Holy Spirit and saying: Yes, Lord I will with your help.
To God be the glory from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus our Lord. AMEN.
