"Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our
hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure
water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He
who promised is faithful."
~ Hebrews 10:22-23
God is faithful, and His promises are true....we can draw near to Him knowing
that He will not turn us away. He knows our frailties, our shortcomings, and
yet, He keeps His promises to us.
Right now you might be feeling like a failure. You may have done something so
stupid you're afraid to tell anyone about it. You just know that they'll be
angry with you and you'll never hear the end of it. You sit alone,
desperately looking for a solution, feeling like your life is in shambles. If
your family and friends think you are stupid, how can God think anything
different? How can you approach the Lord of the universe with this problem of
yours, which you've created? Bother God with it??? I can't......I'd be
nothing more than a bother, someone who pesters Him to fix something I've
messed up...I don't dare....
Dare to approach God! He's there, waiting for you right now.....He already
knows all that you've done, and He even knows all that you will do. Don't let
your shame, fear or worry keep you from Him. Right now, in the middle of the
situation you're in, is when you need Him most. Don't let yourself be robbed
of His loving support, His grace, and the opportunity to see His deliverance
in your life. God may not solve your problem the way you'd like Him to, but
He will solve it in the way that is best for you. Dare to hope, for He who
promised is faithful.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
