what can I do?

-

When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, "Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?" "Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit," Elisha replied.
"You have asked a difficult thing," Elijah said, "yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours--otherwise not." 2 Kings 2:9-10 (NIV)

I hear you speaking, but you are asking the wrong question. You must allow your faith to grow. Do not be satisfied with the status quo, but be satisfied in me.

I hear you asking yourself, "what can I do?" Alone you can remain bound and frustrated, but with me...
Allow me to ask the question of you, "What can I do for you?".

Dare to dream. Follow after me and what you see me doing. Follow after my Spirit and grow. Dare to ask for more of me, expecting to receive. Answer as they did, "I want my sight!".  Expect to see things and in ways you've not yet experienced.

Continue following after me. Nothing is too difficult for me. Reach for your inheritance. Bring it into the present. Then you can ask me the question, "What can I do for you?"

Jesus stopped and called them. "What do you want me to do for you?" he asked.  "Lord," they answered, "we want our sight."
Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him. Matthew 20:32-34 (NIV)

Do not be discouraged

Do not be discouraged. I am with you. Yes, I am working within you, despite what you don’t see or sense. I am with you. Drink-in the water I offer. Apply the balm of my peace to your restlessness. My words bring encouragement. Let them soak into your life. My ways bring wholeness, for now and in the time yet to be revealed. I am active within your life. Rest in me and do not allow discouragement to affect you. My love for you is ever-growing. It reveals itself as you allow me to work. Replace what you don’t see with my assurance.

Reflect Me

-
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10 (NIV) Listen for me and my voice of direction. I will give you the instructions you need. Allow my peace to come upon you. Allow my healing to touch you in those tender spots, so you may share me with others. Reach out to them as you might reach out to me. You are my conduit. I will flow through you. Fear not for you are my agent of love. Reflect me to the world. Let your life speak my peace.
