This is an extremely hard subject for me to write on because it is a daily struggle for me. When I read this verse, I think of Mount Whiteface, Mount Marcy, or possibly the Rockies. Our God is even greater and has more resilience than these mountains that my great great grandchildren will view someday. Yet I want to believe in numbers, in the physical and the tangible, in the facts of this world, or possibly even “Google” instead of in my God. The enemy says things to me like “You shanked it, you’re not worthy, He doesn’t listen to little you.”

This is when I have learned to call the Holy Spirit to help me and ask for mercy. God never moves away from us, but we from him. I just need to learn to trust in Him unrelentingly, for He never fails us. I need to remember to trust Him so much that when the world says “It is impossible”, truly it IS possible. When I shank it like David (Psalms), I need to trust He is still there with me. Most of all, because I have the patience of a 2 year old, when something doesn’t happen the way I envision, I need to trust in His plan and timing over mine. In my life, when I give more energy to trusting in God instead of worrying about the speed bumps of life, I find the peace of the Lord. Truly I believe this is our reward for trusting in Him in all places and circumstances of lif
