Faith Can Move Mountains❤
Jesus answered them, "Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you tell this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will be done.
Matthew 21:21
Hey, friends! So I know we have heard this phrase and verse a lot. Maybe to the point where we roll our eyes and think "I already know this." And I'm sure you do. We all do, but do we truly grasp it? I recently came upon a new mindset for this and it isn't just the simple idea of telling a mountain like the Appalachian Mountains to move, but our struggles! Our struggles are mountains to us because they seem hard to cross and are daunting to look at. I want to challenge you to think of this quote in a different way: "Tell your mountains about your God!" And then watch those mountains move!
I saw this quote when I was scrolling through Pinterest, trying to find great quotes and inspiration for my next journal entries. And this quote hit me. When the darkness thinks it has a hold of us, it has no idea what our God is capable of doing, how far our Heavenly Father will go to loosen the grip of that darkness on us.
I invite you to think about what trials you have been going through. Some were ordained by God, others not so much. But the beautiful thing is, especially when these trials were not from God, He has a plan for everything. He knows how it will end, all we need to do is trust.
I don't know what you're going through, friend, but that is a truth I need to hear and I hope this truth is helpful to you as well. What an amazing Father we have and serve, right?
I have been in complete awe of Him recently, and He has given me an absolute joy that I have not felt in a long time and have needed. Whatever you're going through, remember that God's got it. He has it under control. All we need is be still. He's working it out for our good.
What a good, good Father we have.
