Sunday 7: A Promise

Greater is He that is in you...(1 John 4:4)

You know those moments when you "turn a corner"?  When you come to realize something you should've realized a long time ago?

No doubt this will sound elementary to some people, but I feel like I've had a "light bulb moment"...one of those where things have finally clicked.  And what caused it?  A song we sang this morning that I've probably sung a hundred times, Our God is Greater.  You know the one...

Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other
Our God is healer, awesome in power, our God, our God

It's that first line of the song that is sinking in more and more.  See, life is a whirlwind right now.  I have a lot of apprehension yet excitement, a lot of fear and doubt yet I'm trying to trust and obey.  And that line "Our God is greater" keeps running through my mind.  Yeah, I'm afraid...but God is greater than those fears.  Yeah, I have doubts...but God is greater than those doubts.  Yeah, I don't entirely understand all that's coming my way...but God is greater than my understanding.

So I will continue to live by those words, that God is greater.

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose...What, then, shall we say in response to this?  If God is for us, who can be against us?" -Romans 8:28, 31


Those first seven words at the top of this page are a promise that I will continue to claim each and every day!
