It’s such a relief, isn’t it. Really takes the self-imposed pressure off 🙂 Thanks for reading!

I am going to give them to Him now. I know He can do immeasurably more than I. Keep sharing truth and remarkable faith!

It’s He merciful! Even in our need (maybe especially in our need) He is honored! 🙂 Thanks for your thoughts!

You are so welcome, Jennie! Glad you can relate. Crazy minds think alike…oh wait, that’s no how that goes, is it. 😉

Love the unlimited abilities of God. Even when we only see the limits of ourselves.

Thanks so much for this!

I will pray for you, Will! In the first chapter of my book, I write about the father of the boy with the unclean spirit, and in the conclusion I’ve written about how Christ is honored by our dependence! How merciful of Jesus to allow us to honor him in our dependence, don’t you think! Don’t despise your constant dependence…it is the GOAL! I love to quote Alistair Begg, who says, “If dependence on Christ is the objective, then weakness is an advantage!”

The thing that trips us up is when we think Jesus ought to help us in one certain way by the method we prefer. But he has his Father’s glory and our good as his first aim. Often his methods are less preferable, but most effective. Thank you for visiting with me!

I wish I were not so dependent on Christ. I can’t get it through my head that Christ WANTS to help me, that all I need do is ask.

I feel that my faith is not as strong as it need be. Just like the father of the boy with the unclean spirit, I frequently pray, “I believe; help my unbelief!”

Will you pray for me?

Thank you!
