Gods Answer to My Thoughts

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going badly, but dont lose heart. God is constantly and consistently at work in your life, even in the midst of pain and suffering. For all the negative things you may say to yourself, God has a positive answer. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9 You say, "It's impossible. God says, All things are possible, Luke 18:27 But He said, "The things which are impossible with men are possible with God." You say, "I'm too tired." God says, I will give you rest, Matthew 11:28-30 "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. You say, "Nobody really loves me." God says, I love you, John 3:16, 34 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life" , "For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure". You say, "I can't go on." God says, My grace is sufficient for you, Psalm 91:15 , He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. II Corinthians 12:9, And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

You say, "I dont know which way to turn." God says, I will direct your steps, Proverbs 3:5-6, Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

You say, I can't do it." God says, Through Me you can do all things, Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. You say, "I'm not able." God says, I am able, II Corinthians 9:8, And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work. You say, "It's not worth it." God says, It will be worth it, Romans 8:28, And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. You say, "I can't forgive myself." God says, I forgive you, I John 1:9 , If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Romans 8:1, There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. You say, "I can't manage." God says, I will supply all your needs, Philippians 4:19, And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. You say, "I'm afraid." God says, I have not given you a spirit of fear,

II Timothy 1:7, For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. You say, "I'm always worried and frustrated." God says, Cast all your cares on ME, I Peter 5:7,casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. You say, "I don't have enough faith." God says, I've given everyone a measure of faith, Romans 12:3, For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. You say, "I'm not smart enough." God says, I give you wisdom, I Corinthians 1:30, But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption. You say, I feel all alone. God says, I will never leave you or forsake you, Hebrews 13:5, Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." Dear, you must know that you do not depend on your ability for anything but on GODs ability. Be strong and very courageous as you pilgrim through these challenges of this age.

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD.
