Wesleyne (:

How big and audacious are your prayers? Do you ask God just for those safe things? The things that you just need a little bit of help with, just a little bit of faith with? Or do you ask him for those big, audacious things that exceed human understanding?

In Matthew 19 verses 26, says Jesus looked at them and said, with man, this is impossible, but with God, all things are possible. When I think back over my life and I think of the big audacious things that I asked God for, the things that I had no sight to see, but my faith,

allowed me to pray and to trust God. I can look back and I can see so many ways that God has put a hedge of protection around me. He has removed people from my life that didn't need to be there. He has ensured that my business was flourishing. He ensured even when the business was in tight

tight financial strains. I never ever missed a payroll for my employees. My children always had food to eat. My bills were always paid. And sometimes I would look in my business bank account and be like, Lord, I don't have the money to run payroll and payroll is in two days. And in that moment,

An invoice that was outstanding was paid. Something that wasn't due for a few weeks would be paid early. And it would all work out.

Wesleyne (:

And in those times when I'm like, this is not possible, God. These people are not paying their bills when they need to pay their bills and they have me in this dire financial strait. I might have to do this or do that. God always whispers, trust me. Trust me. That is the word that I've been hearing from God.

continuously in the moments that I close my eyes and I turn off my mind and I sit in silence. I pray for a little bit, but then I want to hear God's voice and the resounding message he has been telling me is to trust him. Trust him.

And when it seems impossible by the world standards, when it seems that although you have miscarried multiple times and the world says you won't carry a baby to term or you won't ever be a mother, know that God, if God has told you that you will be a mother or if you will carry a baby, trust Him.

If you've gone through the devastation of abuse and divorce and separation and bad relationships and the world says that there is no love after divorce. There is no love after being in unhealthy relationships. You will never be able to be in a healthy relationship. Know that if God put that on your heart, if God told you that he was going to send you a spouse,

Know that it is possible. Your faith must be strong. You can't see it, you can't feel it, you can't touch it, but God has spoken it to you. So that is what you hold on to. Keep your faith strong and remember with God, all things are possible.
