TOPIC; SMALL LEAPS

REFERENCE: 2corinthians 4 v 6-7.

Are you feeling disconnected from your faith, experiencing dryness, or going through emotional turbulence? Stay put, you are not alone. God can bring light and understanding even in challenging times. Although our obedience needs to be sincere and not  partly done. Sometimes, your obedience may just be about keeping still, aligning with God's vision, or seeking direction and pondering on the Word of God. It's not a time to heed the voice of the enemy; instead, we can only draw on and ponder what God has to say.

Most times, all we need is a gentle nudge from the Spirit.  Like a candle burning itself out, We've often tried to navigate these challenges alone, but 2 Corinthians 4:6 offers us a glimmer of hope: "For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." This verse reminds us that God's creative power commands light in those dark spots clouding our thoughts. It's in God's character and nature to illuminate darkness through the Spirit of Christ deposited in us when we first believed. His Spirit is a mark of our qualification, signifying that we are in right standing - not by our strength, but by His grace.

We are fragile and
imperfect in our ways, and this reality clearly shows our dependence on God's power, just as 2 Corinthians 4:7 reminds us, "But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us." This dependence encourages humility, acknowledging that our strength comes from God, not ourselves. It's about focusing on His power and glory rather than human achievements. So, with small leaps of faith and a quiet breath, talk to God about how you feel in your imperfections. You'd be amazed at the relief this will bring.
