Sometimes having problems in your life is like kayaking.
Kayaking is stinkin' hard, there, I said it! It takes so much upper body strength, it's almost not funny.
Sometimes in life we're struggling, asking God to help saying, "Why God? Can you please help me!" And he says, in a still small voice, "My dear, I've given you what you need to overcome this, I've given you my Word, my Presence and my Holy Spirit. I will guide you home"
Kayaking is so much like this it's not funny! I was struggling to get back to where I needed to be.
But I looked down and realized, "Duh Bekah! You have the stinkin' paddle! You have what you need to get home! Just use what you were given!
Ahh, I love that God gives us reminders like this, it's pretty cool how he works.
And we know that God causes everything to work together[a] for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. Romans 8:28
And the one sitting on the throne said, “Look, I am making everything new!” Revelation 21:5
Bekah, you're so awesome. I think its so cool that you've started a blog to express what God lays on your heart! You definitely kicked me in the bum pretty hard with that one...Thank you (:
