Are You Becoming Frustrated or Are You Standing and Staying In Faith?

Are you becoming frustrated because you are not seeing your expectation fulfilled?   We have to remember, God is not required to move or act the way we want Him to.   Just as we are not required to move and act the way our children want or expect us to.    We have to stop putting God in the box of our thoughts.  We tend to think that God should do things the way we think they should be done.    We have to stop limiting God based on our way of seeing things and understand that there are limits to God’s power or ability.   We have to understand that God can and will do more than we can think or imagine.   He is the Creator and He is our King.  We have to stand and stay in faith. 

We have to understand that frustration is one of the biggest opposers of faith.   It goes against your faith.   It tries to uproot your faith by causing you to get upset or annoyed.   We often become frustrated because we are looking at “our” inability to do something instead of looking at God’s ability to get it done.   

We have to learn how to keep our hearts, minds, and eyes fixed on God.   We have to make sure that our faith is rooted and grounded in His ability to do what needs to be done.   We have to know that God’s timing is perfect and when it takes longer to see the results of our faith, that doesn’t mean denial.   

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 
Habakkuk 2:3 
King James Version (KJV)

For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
