In Your Words: Which
economy are you doing business in: the world’s economy, which limits God — and
often denies Him completely? Or God’s economy where there is no such thing as
limitation? Why do you need God to be limitless today?

I like hanging around
people who make me think.
And that’s one of the
reasons I like my friend Rachel Hauck. She makes me think. Big thoughts.
Braver thoughts. Bolder thoughts.
She makes me open my
eyes wider and look for God, and all the while it’s like she’s whispering in my
ear, “He’s right there, Beth. Can’t you see Him? Look!”
Rachel’s heart is
passionate for God — she has an ardent, intense faith that drives
everything she does and says. And when she says there are no limits with God,
she means it.
Do I live like that?
Do I look at God — who He says He is — and say, “There are no limits with You,
Lord . . . well, except for that one thing I’m asking of you. That one
area of my life I need to change. That one prayer I’ve been praying. That one
unforgivable person. That one unbreakable sin. But other than that — absolutely
no limits!”
Here’s the truth — and
Rachel got it right: God is either limited … or He’s not.
And He’s not.
How does that change
things?

I admit it: I'm a settle-er. I settle for what I can do within my own power -- which isn't much. I need to act as I believe: that God's power is limitless and He is in control. I am not.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Beth!
Angie: I've watched you this past year and you are believing more and more in God's limitless power!
DeleteI need a friend like your friend Rachel in my life! Thanks for sharing. And I need to invest more in God's limitless economy.
ReplyDeleteIngmar,
DeleteI love how Rachel challenges me. My friends often expand my faith in God.
