Ecclesiastes 3:1-11 will really open your eyes to where you have made your own moves outside of Gods will or plan. We have these plans for us that are beautiful and some are even desires that were placed by God himself…. But it’s not yet time for them.

Habbakuk 1:2-4 starts off with his first line of questions... I can't help but think how similar these questions are to the ones I have asked in my own life. But how do we know when questioning God turns into cursing God.. By the position of our heart. You can hear the concern for the world around him when you read his words. You can hear his desire for God to change it bc he knows who God is. He knows God's power. He knows He is in control. Habbakuk is saying "God what is going on around me is sad and hard to watch, I don't know why its this way or how you are working but I trust you" We can and will continue to be faced with situations that may bring us to our knees.... make us angry and question why God is letting it happen.... Just don't forget who God is... He is a God of refining... He is a God of details.... He is a God of hope. He is a God of perfect timing....

Ephesians 3:17-19 Paul tells us that we need to be ROOTED and ESTABLISHED in love so that we can comprehend the depth, height and width of Gods love and how it surpasses understanding SO THAT YOU may be filled with the fullness of God. He is telling us there is an order that has to happen. If you are rooted and established in fear, anger, the past, victim mentality, distrust, the flesh, envy, etc. You are not going to be able to comprehend the extent of God's love. And if you can't comprehend the extent of God's love, you won't have the opportunity to be filled with the fullness of God. What is the fullness of God? Sustenance. The receiving of God's power and love through the Holy Spirit. Some of you may feel like God isn't enough. For those, you need to ask yourself what you are rooted in. It's most likely not going to be love.

1 Corinthians 1-7 makes it very clear and it is up to you to not apply the 80/20 rule to it. "Well, their love is 80% of that" "if I ask for 100% of it, id be asking for perfection and people aren't perfect." That is a scarcity mindset and you are justifying your behavior so that you aren't limiting your choices bc you fear being alone. Instead, work and know that you are capable of giving that type of love so that you know it doesn't take a perfect person to show a perfect kind of love.
