Solve You First

“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love…” – Ephesians 3:16,17 The biggest problem in dealing with ourselves is that it’s very painful. To become the person we want to be, we have to do difficult and uncomfortable things. The journey to losing weight, the journey to becoming more loving, or the journey to becoming more generous will be painful. The discomfort of self-discipline is inherent as we commit to doing the things that ultimately make our lives better. I firmly believe that when we ask God to solve our problems, He responds, “How about we solve you first?” And He says this because He loves us! I know you’ve heard me say a million times
