Can vs Will

There are probably a lot of things I could do but I won't. Let's take for instance the fact that I probably could drive 100 mph, but I won't (I don't need nor can I afford the ticket). I could probably stay up all night watching stupid shows on television, but I won't because, I need to get some sleep and perform my job duties tomorrow.

On the other hand, there are things that I absolutely will do to the very best of my abilities every day of my life. I will try to be the best husband and father that I can be. I will try to provide for my family the best that I can. I will try to protect my family with everything I have. There's a huge difference between can and will.

Today's word is a quote that simply says, "Faith is not believing that GOD can, it is knowing that He WILL."

I remind others, and myself, that the GOD we serve does not change; He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The miracles that we read about in the Bible are still possible today, yet, we seem to limit GOD'S working those miracles. Hey, I'm as guilty as anyone. JESUS once said to His own disciples, "Oh, ye of little faith..." I think I would be amazed at what GOD would do if I would only truly be faith-full.

I know that GOD can do all things. He can do whatever He wants, whenever He wants, however He wants - He is GOD. I know that He can do abundantly above all that I could ever think, dream, or imagine. Yet, I allow my own human nature to limit His work in my life. I believe He can. I am going to work on KNOWING HE WILL!

Be Blessed,
