Day 3 - A Scribbled Note From Church

Just a little something that stood out at church on Sunday. As I already mentioned yesterday, the sermon was on faith. But, it was also on fear and what happens if you look at your future with fear and not with faith. One thing that happens when you look at your future with fear is that you fulfill your own self-defeating prophecy. We do this all the time don't we? We want something but we internally tell ourselves that we will fail and alas, we do. My favorite part of the scribbled notes I wrote was this, "you need to believe it (the miracle) before you can see/receive it." We can pray for something, we can want something, we can ask for something and we can try for something BUT if we don't believe it can actually happen, it simply won't. Faith requires a lot of believing. Believe in yourself, your abilities and God's ability to work miracles in your life.
