40 Days of Believing God – Day 29

Maybe I’m the only one that thinks like this, but here goes…

Sometimes I won’t pursue a goal or a good idea, because if it doesn’t work, I’ll be disappointed. If I do nothing, at least I’ll still have hope of it working.

Messed up, huh?

Or how about this one…

Sometimes when my circumstances are good, I start to worry they won’t stay that way. I almost feel like it would have been better to have never received the favorable circumstances than to have enjoyed them and then lost them.

That’s messed up thinking, isn’t it?

Maybe it’s just me.

My thinking reveals that I really don’t trust God as I should. I’m afraid of being disappointed. I doubt His goodness toward me. I forget that if He removes something from me, then it’s for my good. He may have something better just around the corner.

God is always good. His love is inexhaustible. He could never disappointment me. Ever. I need to remember that.

I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me.

“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.”  (Psalm 107:1)
