Faith Words: He is Able
Sometimes I make good decisions. Sometimes not so good. Sometimes really bad.
When I really mess up, when I make those really bad decisions, I just want to quit. It feels like there's no way back, no way to fix my mess. The voices I hear are so loud, telling me I've ruined everything. It's too hard. It's too late. Why not just accept that I’m not able?
But God.
I saw a quote on Facebook the other day that read: "There's never been a day when God has panicked and thought...she's ruined everything."
He can see my mess, but He doesn't panic. He doesn't give up on me. He’s not even surprised that I still can’t get it right. He just keeps on loving me, calling me, encouraging me. to try again. He says, "No, don't quit. That's not my way. Hear my voice. Trust me. I know you’re not able but I am."
I don't know how to take that next step. But God does. He knows He’s already made a way.
I don't know how to fix things. But God does. He’s already got a solution worked out.
There's a lot I don't know but I know Whom I have believed. I know He is able.
In His strength,
Patrice

She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.
Better what the eye sees than roving of the appetite.
This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.
Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand.
And this is the plan: At the right time, He will bring everything together under the authority of Christ -- everything in Heaven and on earth.
