Obedience Changes Everything
DAILY VITAMIN
Until we start doing what God wants us to do even in our problems, it will continue to remain a problem. Until you change the phase of your deeds and perceptions, your problems won't get the cue that it's now the phase when they vanish. The poor Zidonian widow may have felt like God was punishing her when He instructed her to feed Elijah her last meal, but unless she had done so, she wouldn't have lived in abundance all the days of her life. The lepers who were willing to meet the priest at Jesus' command despite societal stigmatization wouldn't have been healed if they had paid mind to the opinion of their predicament more than their obedience to Him. Their decision to trust God more than they feared their condition launched them to a new level of bliss. Similarly, only when we decide to trust all He tells us to do more than we fear what might happen due to our present state, are we ready to let those frightful conditions go. Our problems don't decide when they leave, we decide; and as already said until we start doing all God says is requisite for them to be vanquished, they will never be. God told the whole Israel: I place before you life and death, blessing and cursing, choose life that you may live (Deut 30:19); and i believe only those who chose life truly lived. The moment we choose to do the bidded and believe wholeheartedly for the needed even in the storm, we set ourselves up never to be carried away by the fright of the storm; rather we set our anchors fast, steadying our ships to accomplish the necessary to obtain the needed God has made available. Bottomline: Even in your impoverished conditions, dare to do all God instructs you, and believe all He tells you, and as Mary you will bear the testimony that "blessed are you who believed, for they shall be a performance of all that have been told you from God" (Luke 1:45). #Obedience-and-compliance-in-the-storm-brings-forth-your-sunshine.
