FAITH REMEDIATION 101

So I have been wrestling with an issue.

You've gotta be tired of reading that...cause I am tired of saying it....but I think there may always be something we are working out because He knows I have got enough for Him to work with.....

My hang up was I could not see what things were going to look like.

I had no clear vision of the end result.

I kept saying, "Yes Lord I want to obey but I don't know what it looks like,"

which basically meant I wasn't moving until He showed me.

In case you are new to this Christian walk, or to God period, He does not cower to demands.

E...V...E...R....

The sermon I heard on Sunday was the equivalent of a knock on the knuckles with a ruler.

The sting hung around for a bit giving me plenty to ponder on.

Monday, it hit.

You are not required to.

Now let me say here there are times when I have to be reminded of lessons I already know. Times when head knowledge needs to be reignited into heart knowledge.

Remediation if you will.

This was one of those times.

I don't have to know what things are going to look like.

All I have to know is what Christ has said to do and obey.

I am not responsible for making things look pretty or nice.

He is.

I am not responsible for how it all works out.

He is.

My job...

seek Him...

hear Him...

obey Him...

trust Him...

I have no idea how this will pan out.

I really don't. What I do have an idea of is what He requires of me when the situation presents itself.

And it will.

Probably soon.

For you newbies, He likes to do that as well.

I don't like remediation.

But I choose to be grateful for it.

"Being confident of this very thing, that He who begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ."

Philippians 4:6 (NKJV)

Because even though I can't see the end result, He can.

And it is for and to His glory:)
