"If God will provide, the church wouldn't need a collection plate."

Every church knows prayer doesn't work. The game is keeping the congregation from noticing.

I can do all things

I feel like I got a message from God today and I wanted to share.

First, let me say that there are benefits to reading your Bible. The Holy Spirit can bring certain verses to mind in certain contexts, and I believe that’s one way God speaks to us. And that is a precious experience I wouldn’t trade for anything. Read your Bible.

Second, I have been living in paradise for the past few days.

My family and I traveled to Key West, Florida, for my sister’s graduation. My mom was born here, and we have tons of family history here.

We stayed with one of our dear friends, who also happens to be very wealthy and has a magnificent home where he lets us (actually, insists that we) stay for free.

Everything here is perfect. The weather is impeccable. The food is impeccable. The places to visit are fascinating. The stories our friend has for us and our family history are fascinating.

I haven’t had an ounce of anxiety or depression since arriving.

I have been seriously dreading going home, knowing that I will inevitably slip back into depression because of my job and the weather and the monotony. Our weather at home will be dreary and gray for months. My job is monotonous and stressful. I’m tired all the time. I spend practically all my time at home, in my room, trying to find something to divert my attention away so my depression doesn’t drown me.

I’ve even been considering if there was any way I could take another trip here this year or even stay here for an extended period of time for the sake of my mental health.

Today, standing out on our friend’s dock in the sun and surrounded by nature, I was thinking about how much I dread going back to depression and anxiety, and I remembered this passage:

Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Philippians 4:11-13

And I realized that I have been “abounding” and “facing plenty” and “facing abundance.” I have been facing abundance both in the lavish conditions I’ve been living in and the happy and relaxed emotions I’ve been experiencing. I’ve been spoiled materially, and though that’s been fun and great and a blessing, over everything and above all, I’ve been happy. Because of the sun and the sea and the history and the friendship and the recreation and the relaxation.

I will be returning not to poverty, not to lack in the material sense, by the grace and providence of God. But I will be returning to lack and poverty in the sense of my emotions and mental health. I will be returning to depression.

But in all these things, God tells me He will give me strength and will provide for me.

This passage is so often misused and misquoted to say that we can do whatever we set our minds to. But that’s not what it means.

It means that no matter what we have or the conditions we face, God will sustain us.

And that’s a much more precious truth. And it’s how I will find the strength to get on a plane home tomorrow.

I will be ok returning to the life back home that’s a breeding ground for my depression, with my job and the gloomy weather and the monotony, because

I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

#my journey #my writing #God #Bible #i hope this doesn’t come across as me being an entitled rich girl #i really don’t know how we got so lucky to have such a rich and generous friend #I’m not poor in the material sense but I am poor in the emotional sense #but I’m going to be ok #God will provide #God will sustain me #the weather back home has been so atrocious #I think it’s mostly that #but also just being on vacation with my family

[Let us] pause for a moment upon this question of our Lord’s, ‘Whence shall we buy bread that these may eat?’ Now notice what a lovely glimpse we get there into the quick-rising sympathy of the Saviour with all forms of human necessity. He had gone away to snatch a brief moment of rest. The rest is denied Him; the hurrying crowds come pressing with their vulgar curiosity– for it was nothing better– after Him. No movement of impatience passes across His mind; no reluctance as He turns away from the vanishing prospect of a quiet afternoon with His friends. He looks upon them, and the first thought is a quick, instinctive movement of a divine and yet most human sympathy. The question rises in His mind of how He was to provide for them; they were not hungry yet; they had not thought where their bread was to come from. But He cared for the careless, and His heart was prophetic of their necessities, and quick to determine ‘what He should do’ to supply them. So is it ever. Before we call, He answers. Thy mercy-- O loving Christ! --needs no more than the sight of human necessities, or even the anticipation of them, swiftly to bestir itself for their satisfaction and their supply.

Alexander MacLaren; Commentary on John 6:5

I'm not sure it ever was to be honest,

we just all fooled ourselves into thinking we were safe,

How foolish we all are..

July, 1 (Morning) Devotion

“In summer and in winter shall it be.”

Zechariah 14:8

The streams of living water which flow from Jerusalem are not dried up by the parching heats of sultry midsummer any more than they were frozen by the cold winds of blustering winter. Rejoice, O my soul, that thou art spared to testify of the faithfulness of the Lord. The seasons change and thou changest, but thy Lord abides evermore the same, and the streams of his love are as deep, as broad and as full as ever. The heats of business cares and scorching trials make me need the cooling influences of the river of His grace; I may go at once and drink to the full from the inexhaustible fountain, for in summer and in winter it pours forth its flood. The upper springs are never scanty, and blessed be the name of the Lord, the nether springs cannot fail either. Elijah found Cherith dry up, but Jehovah was still the same God of providence. Job said his brethren were like deceitful brooks, but he found his God an overflowing river of consolation. The Nile is the great confidence of Egypt, but its floods are variable; our Lord is evermore the same. By turning the course of the Euphrates, Cyrus took the city of Babylon, but no power, human or infernal, can divert the current of divine grace. The tracks of ancient rivers have been found all dry and desolate, but the streams which take their rise on the mountains of divine sovereignty and infinite love shall ever be full to the brim. Generations melt away, but the course of grace is unaltered. The river of God may sing with greater truth than the brook in the poem—

“Men may come, and men may go,

But I go on forever.”

How happy art thou, my soul, to be led beside such still waters! never wander to other streams, lest thou hear the Lord’s rebuke, “What hast thou to do in the way of Egypt to drink of the muddy river?”

Trying to hear the voice of God in the midst of a storm is the biggest challenge I’m facing right now. Faith without works is dead. But what if the "work" that I put in is not what He wants/needs me to do? I have discernment for blatant bad decisions, however, what if a good choice to me isn’t what He had planned for me? What if I choose wrong? “Faith,” I know. “Don’t question Him,” I know! But my brain won’t turn off the fear of failure for choosing wrong... moving 10 steps back... in a deeper hole. Disappointing Him...and myself.

“Faith”.... I KNOOOOWWW!
