With God all things are possible Posts: 3917	It is important to count our blessings during challenging times because it keeps us from getting discouraged. We can focus on what's need to be done so much that we fail to see what God has done. If you are being tempted to worry about something right now, take a moment to count your blessings that God has already done for you. It will help you not to get overwhelmed by the problem. Satan, the enemy of our souls, does not want us to grow in faith: he wants us to be filled with worry, anxiety, and fear, He works hard to distract us from God by encouraging an excessive focus on our circumstances. My heart knows that I CAN TRUST God completely, but my head often tells me to worry. If Satan can get us to think about what is wrong or could go wrong with a situation, he can keep us from being able to focus on trusting God. This is why Hebrews 12:2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and Perfector of our faith, who for joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand the throne of God. Little faith becomes great faith through use. As we take steps to trust God, we experience His faithfulness and that, in turn, encourages us to have greater faith. As our faint developes and grows, our problems have less power over us and we worry less. For it is WITH God ALL things ARE possible Father God, guide us to do all things that will bring glory and honor to You Amen. Have a VERY BLESSED Tuesday ALL!!
