Faith in Promises

"Do I pray more out of panic in response to my circumstances or out of faith in response to God's promises?"

- Oswald Chambers

Go To God

"We become tired and stressed because we let our circumstances burden us. When you begin to feel that way, go to God. He promises to give you rest."

- Unknown

Like the Stars

"God's promises are like the stars; the darker the night the brighter they shine."

- David Nicholas

The Promise Doesn't Lie

"You may be looking at what is your divine purpose, God's plan for you, and saying, "That doesn't make any sense. There's no way."  But the promise doesn’t lie.  Why? Because His word is not like ours.  His word is an extension of Him.

You know what does lie? Our circumstances, emotions, current lack, limitations… They lie to us.

Abraham faced up to each one of these that told him, "it's always been this way. Nothing will change now. How can any of this be true?” Of each of us, they press and demand ever more loudly, "HOW?" And like Abraham, our gritty, tenacious, faith-filled answer can be, "GOD."'
