Yes You Can

Over the past few days, I’ve been dealing with a few challenges. I do believe that Father puts us in certain situations because He has a plan, He and He alone knows what we need more than we do. I believe He places us in the middle of things to make a difference, for either us to grow or for others to grow. However, it’s not always easy.

Well, last night as I sat with Him before going to bed I found myself asking if for this certain situation, “Father you have to show me if this is where you want me to be. I’m not sure how to handle this, I don’t think I can fix this”. Upon saying that, I almost immediately heard, “Yes you can”. I wasn’t expecting such a clear answer so quickly, and I was like, “Well that was fast, ok I get it, however Father, I need your help to do this”. I felt a calm after this little exchange, I felt a strength that I can get through this challenge. What I found myself praying next was for His guidance through His word. I mentioned last week that I’m digging back into the Bible really gaining more of an understanding than I ever have. I’m learning many things and really seeing how so many things today have happened before. I asked Father to show me how to best handle these challenges using His word, to guide me, and to give me strength. 

When I went to bed last night following this pretty personal conversation with Father, I dug into a couple of the very small books of the Bible, one of them being Habakkuk. It’s a small book of the bible in the Old Testament and I encourage you to give it a read. It is very relevant to what we see happening today, and the book provides much hope. After reading a few of these smaller books, I turned off the light and found myself in and out of a few dreams. I have to admit, I’m not quite sure this morning the meaning of them, more conversation with Father to be had about those. I guess I find myself in a little flux this morning friends, it’s a weird feeling. I feel Father doing things in my life I feel Him calling me to help with certain things, I just need more clarity.

I know this, I know He is with me, He is guiding this train and I know that what He calls me to do, I’ll do my best, and I’ll lean on Him through it. I guess in many ways I’m growing in my relationship with Father. That was a goal of mine if you recall. I do feel closer to Him and now it’s about believing that “Yes you can” do whatever He is calling you do to.

Many random thoughts here I guess this morning. Thanks for letting me spill them out here in print as I discern the next steps with Him. Have a great day friends and remember, “Yes you can” 🙂

Habakkuk 3:19
God, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places. To the choirmaster; with stringed instruments.
