Hello all, I’ve crawled out of hiding once again to blow your minds with some inspirational mumbo jumbo.
No seriously, I have something to say lol.
So it’s 2018. Crazy, right? The new year has come and gone and I’ve found myself looking for a new mantra for these next 365 days (even less than that now). Well the search is over, because last night I found one. It’s Ephesians 3:20.
I literally love this. Like, not figuratively. Literally. One translation even says, “immeasurably more.” Just think on that for a quick sec. Our God is able to do immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine.
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m believing God for a lot of things this year. So much so, that when I start to think about everything that I want to accomplish in 2018 I kinda start totally buggin’. Totally buggin’, that is, until I remember how big the God is that we serve. Until I remember that He is able to do immeasurably more than I might ask or think. See, when I think about all that in my terms, it seems impossible. I think to myself, “How can I do all these things in just one year?” But my terms are not God’s terms, and where I see impossible He sees possible.
In 2018, I’m devoting my time, energy, whole heart, and my whole life to trusting Jesus and believing that He’s going to work. Believing that where my works and my efforts aren’t enough, He’s going to show Himself. And finally, believing that I can continue drawing myself and others closer to Him through the way I live my life. Not for me, but for Him.
Because He is deserving of all glory. Because He is able to do immeasurably more…
Stay sweet, y’all, and happy new year. 🙂
