Promises

This morning my meditation was centered on a comment made by Chuck Pierce which is challenging in my personal life at this time - this year! "What in my past has stopped me from stepping into the future God has for me?"

Some of the promises of God that we can consider as we meditate:
1. God knows where we are - always.
2. God knows were to find me - always.
3. God lets us know in many ways the following:
A. I know what you went through.
B. I know what you are going to go through.
C. I know what you need today to press through.
God is very interested in bringing us into a fullness of His plans! He is interested in re-arranging every circumstance to accomodate each of us knowing and being aware of His presence.

In John 21, Jesus steps into a boat and challenges the disciples after mending their nets - to go fishing again. Even after they protested, Jesus encouraged them to shift their thinking! Try something NEW with the works of their mended nets. Even as we mend our spirits and souls through the various trials and sufferings we have, Jesus helps us mend. Yet, we must shift our usual way of thinking into a new dimension - shifting our methods to attain the higher level we are being drawn to.

What do you think? How do you stretch for the higher dimensions; the new levels?
