Blessed be Your Name!

As I was praying today, the Lord spoke to me about my struggle in sanctification. He made me realize that I was the one making my problems more intense. Instead of just trusting Him and saying “Lord, may You do as You will, blessed be Your Name! I am your servant”, I would ask him “Why oh Lord? Why allow me to be in this situation were I could be tempted like this? Are you not sovereign?”. Ah, how I have grieved the Spirit of God yet again through my foolish words!

The Lord loves me. He truly loves me and He will not forsake me. Not that I deserve it or earned it (no way!). He, Himself, declared this through His Son and I believe Him. No wonder the apostle Paul had prayed that the Ephesians would be able to “grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ“! The love of Christ is the cure to the diseases of our hearts! His love is the source of all comfort, joy, peace and many other things beyond our imagination!

Every creased brow or depressed mind is cured at the cross of Christ! When He says “Come those of you who are weary”, He meant it and He will – He REALLY will carry our load. Though we have always been reminded about God’s love through our daily meditations, its a totally different thing to experience it! God loves me and I trust Him (I hope I don’t sound prosperity-ish here). I believe He does and He will continue to do so because He keeps His Word. I am in good hands. I have nothing to fear. I have nothing to worry about. I am His! To Him be the glory!
