How hard indeed for those of us self sufficient, high achieving, self absorbed individuals!
The Christian walk is a faith walk and only those with a faith like a child – childlike belief in the totality and simplicity of the gospel without embellishments that will reap the rewards of The Kingdom.
Lord, in your mercy make me a child in my faith. Help me to be logical but not to the point of trying to make sense of your Word.
Forgive me Lord for always questioning you. I mean every single time, I question and reason with your instructions, I mean you want us to come together to reason together, to wipe of our sins – Isaiah 1:18.
Let my intelligence, my skills, talent, and the wealth you bestow on me not stand in the way of my believing, and acting on your Word promptly I pray in Jesus mighty name. Amen
Shalom! Shalom! Shalom!
Amen! We complicate our lives trying to make logical sense of everything. When our Lord only asks for us to have faith.
