Losing Sight

If you have ever played golf, which I know some of you are saying, "Why would I want to do that," but, if you have ever played, you know that there are holes on the course that are often blind shots. You can't see the landing area or the green; you have to pick out a spot, a target, and hit towards that target and have faith that the ball is going where it should. Now, if you play as poorly as I do, the ball never goes where it should.

There will be times that the obstacle in front of us seems ginormous, like there is no way we could ever overcome it. We can't see the beauty on the other side because of the giant boulder blocking our view. Often, we think things are hopeless because of what we see. When this happens, we need to concentrate on what we know and not on what we see.

Today's word is a quote from A. W. Tozer that says, "Sometimes when we get overwhelmed, we forget how BIG GOD is."

Do you ever allow the obstacle to become larger than GOD? Sure, we all do. However, if we would only see how BIG GOD is, and remember that He has things under control, and that He has everything working for our good, we would see how small and insignificant the overwhelming circumstances truly are.

It is an old saying but the next time something comes up that seems impossible just look at the problem and say, "My GOD is bigger!"

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
