Have you ever found it easier to ask God for help before asking the person you carpool with? You’re comfortable with pouring your heart out in prayer, but you struggle with sharing with your spouse? You're not an individual who's looking for a hand out. You know this and I know this, but you have a challenge being honest with where you fall short and when you need help.
I feel that sometimes the people that are the closest to us are the farthest away from our most intense troubles. Why are you hiding? Why are you anxious? Why do you struggle with trust?
It's time to yield to the help that God has provided. Yes, I know you don't like to ask for help, but God has provided it in a way that commands you to be vulnerable. Why? His strength is made perfect in weakness. But, according to you, you're good. But, if you and I are honest with each other, if we don't make a choice to be honest, we my put ourselves at a disadvantage.
Nothing great has ever been built by one person. Nothing that significantly changed the world manifested itself at the hands of one man or woman. Anything that has demanded change in the lives of millions required the work of a dedicated group of individuals who strived as a team!
You're good by yourself, but God has called you to be great, fruitful, wealthy, healthy, and successful. As Nehemiah did in Jerusalem, so shall God do in your life, if you realize that your greatness is attached to your ability to be open to connection with those that are around you!
It’s okay to lean on those that are around you. Hang in there and let someone help you. You are loved and adored by more people than you realize. Furthermore, God loves you more than anyone, He has a plan for your life, and part of the actuality of that plan will be seen as you connect with those around you!
Let’s build together!
Pastor Tim
