Daily Inspirational Thought - July 21

Giving up all feelings and go by faith. When your faith fumbles, look to scripture. When you don't feel like celebrating, or you feel like your life is taking a backward twirl, go back to your faith.

Remember why you believe. Reflect on the day when the Lord spoke to you. Recall those days, when God answered your prayers.

When your feelings are telling you life isn't going to get any better than this, when you feel like you've done everything you could possibly do, then turn back to faith.

Being obedient to God isn't about feelings, it's about faith. Even when you don't "feel" like praising, remember God is in control of all things. He is working together everything for His purpose in your life. He has overcome all trials. He has given His love to you.

Praise Him for His will to be done.

Letting your feelings control your thoughts will only leave you in a downward spirl. Feelings are misleading. Pain and grief can obstruct your thoughts. 

When the storms in your life enter, remember God's promise in the rainbow. He will bring to safety.  He will part the waters for you. He will never let you down.

To have child-like faith

Start your day in prayer even when you don't feel like it.

Ask God to give your heart some relief from the grief.

Tell Him how you feel.

Ask Him to wash over those thoughts with His love.

Your faith remains even when your feelings tell you different.

Count on the faith that moves mountains. Expect great things. God will show you the next step.

Don't lose faith.
