You Must Not Know Bout Me

"I don't know how I am gonna make it." "I have bills due, just where is the money coming from?" "I am so depressed and I cannot find a release." These are all statements that we speak from time to time. Overwhelming experiences arise, and it is almost as if we forget all the knowledge that we have acquired from the Almighty God.

In the word, we are told of many accounts where God made a way when it seems that no way could be created. Daniel found himself in the lions' den...God made a way. There was a lady with the issue of blood...God made a way. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were in the fiery furnace...God made a way. What it seems like however, is that God's grace and mercy had a time limit on it. To explain that further, we feel as if God doesn't work in the same way in this present day.


It is so amazing how when problems arise in our lives we seek other options first. Friends, family, significant others, even psychic hot lines, trying to find answers to the problems we are having. Why not try God first? It amazes me how we can trust so much in man made things that fail us over and over, however when it comes to God, we have many apprehensions. The doctor gives us drugs to take, we ask and say nothing, pull up to Walgreens or CVS and get them, then we take them. All of this, with no questions asked. We go to a restaurant and order food, we don't see the chef prepare it, nor the server walk it to us, and we intake the meal with no issue. So, why when it comes down to a man that is perfect, a man that knows all and sees all, and a man that wants us to cast our cares on Him, and we are hesitant? Think about it.

In life, there are gonna be pains, heartache, disappointments, and obstacles that we don't understand. It is apart of life. However, just as these negatives appear, so is God. The only thing we have to do is ask, and have faith that He is going to provide. 1 Samuel 15:29 Tells us, "He who is the glory of Israel, does not lie or change His mind; for he is not a man that he should change his mind." Just because man fails you after giving a promise, and just because we have many Indian-Giver type individuals in life who renege on promises, doesn't mean that our God will do the same. He wants the best for us, and wants us to succeed. All we have to do is ask Him!


So you said you don't know how to make it; the bible tells you in Psalms 25:9, "He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way. YOU MUST NOT KNOW BOUT ME!

You said that you have bills and you don't know where the money is coming from; the word tells you in John 15:7, ""If you abide in me and my word abides in you, you will ask what you desire and it shall be done for you." YOU MUST NOT KNOW BOUT ME!

You are depressed and you can't find a release is what I heard you say; well, the bible tells you in Psalms 34:17 "The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delievereth them our of their troubles." YOU MUST NOT KNOW BOUT ME!

Try God; I promise you will not be let down. God works in His time, His way, and His methods because He knows what we need and when we need it. Beyonce gave us the highly known single, but in all actuality many of us must not know about God. The point to remember is that, Beyonce could find another him. In the case of my God, you can search far and wide, but you will never find one like the Father. Try Him for yourself!

The pen just has to testify!
