Believe It

("From the Heart of God" Devotionals by Cherie Hill- to be published 2012)

I know your needs are plenty.

I watch over you with an unwavering eye.

Every detail is within My grasp.

But your faith slips, your flesh is weak,

and you question My sovereignty.

Don't just look at your life and think that is all there is to it.

Every event is a parallel to something deeper
and more important concerning your spirit.

Don't you trust My Promises to you?

Have you forgotten Truth?

Do you really believe that I will do what I say I will do?

If your mind understands it,
why isn't your heart responding to it?

Allow My Promises to grip you.

Read My Word and believe it.

I am forever faithful, My Word is true.

I'll never leave or forsake you.

Never question in the dark what I have revealed in My Light.

When in doubt . . . believe.

Jesus asked them: “Why are you talking about having no bread?

 Do you still not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened?

 Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear?

 And don’t you remember?

Mark 8: 17-18 (NIV)
