"My dear children, let's not just talk about love; let's practice real love. This is the only way we'll know we're living truly, living in God's reality. It's also the way to shut down debilitating self-criticism, even when there is something to it. For God is greater than our worried hearts and knows more about us than we do ourselves." -I John 3:18-20 (MSG)
It is easy to sit and talk about problems and even solutions, but it can be harder to actually stand up and move forward to put solutions into practice. Whenever we want to solve a problem, we are often met with roadblocks. We may be up against others that do not agree with us. We may worry that we will fail. As we prepare ourselves to move from talk to action, we need to remember that God is in control!
God is love and through His love we can learn about and know how to love. God is also an active God that is involved in each of our lives and in all that He created. We are living in a reality that includes God. In that reality we may begin to doubt ourselves and our abilities, but we should remember that God is greater than us. He is able to accomplish more through our lives than we could ever imagine possible. When we are looking to move from talk to action, we can begin with God's love and then let go of our worry and trust that God will use us for more than we think possible!
Start with love, let go of your worry and then allow God to use you for His plan!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for showing me Your love and for Your willingness to take away my worry. Please guide me and use me for Your plans and for Your glory. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
