Simple Faith

No doubt I appreciate my PC Study Bible, google search, youtube, commentaries, internet and books. And no doubt I do believe that they are tools that God uses to help equip us to expound upon His word. But just as any tool, they can become a crutch and can soon control us. They can control our creative process, they can even hinder us from hearing from God, when they are supposed to help us better understand what God has spoken to us.

Sometimes my faith is in my tools to help me communicate God's word. I believe more in the tools then the toolmaker. Today I had just my Bible and a notebook. All I could do was listen to God speak and write it down. I was stuck, but stuck with the only things I needed, a heart to listen and faith that God would speak. And that He did.

God often speaks most clearly to us when, we are most desperate for Him. When we have exhausted all other options, we seek His face. God lvoes to use our weakness and foolishness and remind us its not about us. But its all for His glory
