so my discipleship meeting last night was kind of a refresher of the past couple of months...so good. The overall theme is living an abundant life in Christ. Last night we talked about living in hope of the promises of God...but do we really know what those promises are? And even more important, do we believe them whole heartedly? I know I struggle with believing who I am in Christ. When I am doubting, its hard to admit that I am, because I feel like I'm saying, "God, you're not enough for me." Out of my doubt I have to cry out "I do believe; help my unbelief." Mark 9:24. When we admit our brokenness and unbelief before the Lord, He will show Himself to us. "You are My witnesses," declares the Lord, And My servant whom I have chosen, so that you may KNOW and BELIEVE Me and understand that I am He." Isaiah 43:10(emphasis mine) His desire is not only for us to believe in Him as Savior, but to believe He wants a personal relationship with us. Why don't I read the Bible like God meant what He said? How often are we trying to find pleasure in the things of God (i.e. all those really good things we do for Him), and not God Himself? All of that will leave us empty and dissatisfied. Have you ever wondered if there was more to the Christian life? THERE IS! All we have to do is receive it.
