YES WAY

I'm sure we've all heard someone say, or have said ourselves at times, "no way", "there is no way" or maybe "no way no how". In most cases the underlying thought is that we can't see how this "thing" can happen.

When it comes to praying we have all probably spent time trying to figure out the "how" of our answer rather than just believing it is done and that we have the answer.
Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. (KJV)


The other day it occurred to me that one of the names of Jesus is "The Way". He is the "how" of every answered prayer, the "how" of every miracle. If we will just trust Him, remain in faith and be thankful for the answer whatever "way", whatever we need to do will be shown to us then as we act upon that direction the answer will come.

Keep your eye on the prize, Jesus will make the way.

THINKIN' .... SWEET or STINKIN'

Ps 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (KJV)

Ps 104:34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD. (KJV)

Gal 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. (KJV)

We have all heard about different types of seed, actions, things and our words. Have you ever considered “thoughts” as seeds? They really are because they are the beginning of all our words and actions. Where are your thoughts today? What are you dwelling on? The thoughts that you hold on to, will eventually become your world and your experience, so remember to choose wisely.

Phil 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (KJV)
