Trusting In The Great I Am

Good Morning Everyone,

When we are at the end of our rope
God is waiting there,
He has been holding us all along.

When all seems lost
God knows we are found,
He is the great Shepherd who leaves
the 99 sheep for the one Lost Sheep.

When all resources seem at an end
God owns the cattle on a thousand hills,
He is not limited by our thinking,
but able to do exceedingly abundantly
above that which we ask or think.

When trials and troubles come relentlessly
God's mercy abounds even more,
He says my grace and strength are sufficient
for thee, trust in Me. I am the Great I Am,
I Am all you need.

Lessons learned in the time of crisis
the time of loss
the time of waiting
teach us to stretch
grow
rely on
cling to
and trust implicitly in God.

Not in men
not in our power
not in our strength.
But in God.

He gives power to the faint and weary,
and to him who has no might He increases strength --
causing it to multiply and making it abound.

But those who wait upon the Lord -- who expect,
look for, and hope in Him -- shall change and renew their
strength and power; they shall lift their wings
and mount up (close to God) as eagles (mount up to
the sun) they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint or become weary.
Isaiah 40:29,31

God help me to remember today
to walk in your strength
not my own,
to trust in your power and abilities
to watch over me, solve my problems,
provide my needs. Help me to cling to,
rely on, trust in and find hope in you each day.
You are my source, and I praise you oh God
your mercies, grace and provision are new each day.

Amen.

All He is, is all you will Ever need.

ps. Don't be one of those people who say you
trust God and then live in fear and despair all your
life. Be one of those people who mean what you say
and say what you mean, and actually read your Bible,
pray, fellowship with God's people and not only walk in
His light but be a light for all around you. This takes
daily surrender and a heart turned towards God, trusting
in Him and walking with Him, and seeking His will above all.

He Giveth More


He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase,
To added affliction He addeth his mercy,
To multiplied trials, He multiplied peace.

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,
Our Father's full giving has only begun.

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He giveth and giveth and giveth again.

I have often felt that many things that bring us to our knees,
teach us while we are down there to learn to pray.


These possibilities are open to everyone.
Don't tell God you are not good enough, do what He asks.
Don't tell God to send someone else, He asked you.
Don't tell God you don't have time to pray, He said seek me first.
Don't neglect the things of God. He said we are to
pick up His cross daily and follow Him.
Don't tell God anything is bigger than His ability.
God is the Great I Am, I am whatever you need.

There is no pit so deep, God's love is not deeper still.

Not my will but thine oh Lord.
