let our faith be more than anthems
God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
But the word of the Lord continued to grow and to be multiplied.
Moreover, the angel of the LORD said to her, “I will greatly multiply your descendants so that they will be too many to count.”
"I will certainly bless you, and I will multiply your descendants beyond number."
Today God is working in my heart, moving with faith. As I seek God for EmergeJC and for RI and for W555 and for PAC(C)MAN, God is challenging me with the story of the empty contract. He’s asking me to give up all of my human understanding, all of my human knowledge, all of my human desires, in exchange for His marvelous marvelous plan. If I had to sign a contract with God and I didn’t know what it entailed, would I still sign it? Yes, yes, yes. Definitely, without any shadow of a doubt.
And as I pray this prayer and keep an open mind about what He wants in my life, He is blowing my mind.
All this while, I’ve been believing for growth- in RI, in W555, in PAC(C)MAN…but today God says: Phine, I don’t want growth, I want multiplication. Don’t limit Me. Make disciples, not believers. I want multiplication, not addition.
God…use me however You want to. I’m a broken, willing vessel for Your glory. However You want to, Lord, I am here. Let my life reflect Your love, let my walk reflect Your glory. Here I am, send me. By grace, through faith, I am Yours and Yours alone.
