A Devotion I came across!

This is a devotion I got in my email this morning.  I subscribe to a devotion for dieters and sometimes they have some good stuff,  this one really touched me this morning.

Matthew 21:21

Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done.

Most people like to feel they are in control of their lives. When they are manipulated or made to feel helpless, they rebel and fight with everything they can. Funny how many of the same people are people *****fuse to be ruled by their passions. They ask themselves, 'What would Jesus have me do and be?' rather than leaping into situations without any forethought. Christ should be the only Ruler of our lives, and when we turn all power over to Him, miraculous things begin to happen.

Today's thought: The same power that withers figs can wither fat!

 

 The thing that got my attention was that not only the same power that withers figs can wither fat but can also wither away obstacles in our lives,  seems we all come up different daily obstacles, no matter what  God has the power to see us through and will if we let him.

Hope everyone has a blessed day.
