ABSOLUTE..........

today was an awesome service. pastor david did an incredible sermon. he was talking about faith. all of the different types of faith there are. his text came from james:2. he said a lot of really great things, but the things that he said that really ministered to my spirit was having an absolute trust in God. the word the really stuck in my heart and mind was absolute.

if a person has an absolute idea or thought, it is with complete and unmovable determination. there are many times in my life that i lose sight of that word. or it doesn't even come into play. absolute. there are no questions there. no faltering, no stumbling and no room for doubt.

the Holy Spirit really started speaking to my heart about all of the cares of this world that make for distractions in my life and turn my focus off of God. there is an old hymn that sayes, oh the peace we often forfeit. how many times have i been so guilty of that. sometimes our circumstances seem so overwhelming, that we totally focus on that. or even minor situations or just regular everyday life prevents us or keeps us so distracted from God that we forget how much He truly loves us.

he loves us so much. i think if we really knew how much, i mean really knew,we would be unstoppable. the word also tells us that just for a moment is our affliction. we are not to grow weary in doing good for in due season we shall reap a harvest. but we can' t even work the feild when our focus is off of Christ and his absolute love for us. if we knew how much He loved us then our faith in Him would be absolute. I forget that He will never let anything come into to my path the with Him, i can't handle.

absolute trust. knowing that all things work together for good for those that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.

My Dearest Jesus,
Please help me to have absolute trust in you. I realize this may be asking for opportunities for me to exercise this in my life, but i don't care. I want to totally trust you. Relax in you. Rest in you no matter what. I know you dearly love me and that you are constantly working for my good. Help me stay focused on you. You are every breathe i take. you are my life and i am so blessed that you listen to my ramblings no matter how long. You are my best friend and constant companion. You are my true confidant and my trust lies solely in you. I want to show my girls what a mother looks like who totally puts her trust in you. I want to show them what a woman of faith is. I love you Jesus. Take total control of my heart life and soul.

p.s. Thank you for bringing your promises to fruition. You know what i mean. You are so faithful.

Your daughter,
Kim
