What Is It That God Is Trying To Do? God Wants To Use You As His "Funnel"......

Have you ever stopped and wondered....what is it that God is trying to do?   What lesson does He want me to learn?   Why am I in this place at this time?    When will this season pass?  

God wants you to understand and know that not only is He trying to get something to you....He is trying to get something through you.   You are a "funnel".    A funnel is a utensil that has a wide top and a narrow bottom.   It is used to guide liquid or powder into something that has a narrow opening.   Please understand that not every funnel can be used on every object.   God wants to use you as His funnel.  There are specific people that He has placed in your life that you are designed to pour into.   Because your heart is open to Him (the wide opening)......He wants to pour into you so that you can pour into someone else.   He wants you to be a funnel of His grace, His power, and His anointing.     

We need to begin to see our trials and our struggles differently.....the way God sees them.    They are only meant to stretch you.   To stretch your capacity to receive God's goodness and His grace.  To enhance your faith.   Understand that after stretching comes comfort.   Comfort in knowing that God has it all under control.   

Think about it.....when you buy a new pair of shoes.   They have to be worn.   They have to be stretched.   After they are stretched....they are comfortable to wear.    You have to understand the stretching process that comes through trials and test.    After you have been through it....after your faith has been stretched....those areas no longer cause you to react or to be afraid.   Those are areas that you have walked through.   Where you already been stretched.   Where you now walk through with grace and confidence.   It's in those areas you can now be a funnel.   You can now pour out with confidence the Word of God to people around you that are going through the same thing.    It's at that time you become a funnel of what God has done for you....pouring faith, trust, and confidence into someone else.

Understand that your momentary pain can make a world of difference.   God wants you to take all that you have been through and help someone else "get through".   Your approach is based on your reaction to who God is.    Is He your father, your daddy, your friend?   If He is all that....then you know that He will never leave you nor forsake you and He will not allow you to be broken.    Stretching only enlarges your capacity to contain so that He can funnel through you .... His love, His grace, and His mercy.

What Do You Do When You Are Not Sure What To Do?

In the midst of all the trials that come with life, what do you do when you don’t know what to do?   Do you quit?   Do you give in?   Do you...
