When we experience feelings of giving up or fear, we are allowing doubt to creep into our lives. We begin to ask questions and doubt God's ability to deliver us from any situation. Instead of allowing doubt to breed fear and anxiety, we need to "cultivate faithfulness" and "delight in the Lord" to overcome these feelings.
God wants us to be faithful to Him, to cultivate faithfulness in Him, and to delight in Him and His blessings for us. For God to give us the desires of our hearts, we must commit to Him in all we do. When we feel like giving up or like we are frozen and prevented from starting a new endeavor, we need to bring everything to God in prayer. God has a plan for us, but we must be patient, committed to Him, and ready to accept His blessings! No doubt about it!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your willingness to grant the desires of my heart. Help me as I strive to be committed and faithful to You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
