Note: I added an “Ask Anything” Page to my blog so you can ask questions anytime you like by clicking here! You can also ask questions on Facebook or Twitter any time! I’ll answer questions as long as they are coming in!

In this Addition I answer:

What would you do if you were invisible for 24 hours?

How would I live out my faith if I had one week to live?

Proverbs 3:5-12 – Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil!

When I was 18, I did an internship at my church. I had one problem with it: I wasn’t allowed to date. I didn’t like this because I was in love with a girl! The pastor over the interns sat me down and said that I’d have to cut off my relationship with the girl for one year to focus on God.

I was filled with anxiety. Filled with fear. Filled with stress…and Filled with questions: What if she meets someone else? What if she forgets about me? What if I don’t end up with her?

I thought there were valid questions, so I brought them up to the pastor overseeing me. He looked at me and said, “Bubba, you’re not trusting God.”

That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. It was true, I wasn’t trusting God. A few days later, the pastor sent me this scripture in a text and said it was for me:

You (God) will keep in perfect peace, all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Isaiah. 26:3

From that moment on, I start fixing my thoughts and my heart on God instead of my questions, fear, and anxiety. As I started putting God first, I became more and more confident in Him. Over time, I learned to trust Him with all of my heart.

The Result: After the internship, I got the girl and now, 9 years later… I’m still with that girl! Even though it wasn’t always easy, I trusted God, and He came through.

If you are stressed, don’t have peace, are anxious, or rules by fear, ask yourself this question: Am I trusting God? If you don’t have peace, rest, and confidence, then most likely the answer to that question is no. If that is the case… start focusing on God.

No matter what you’re going through today, Trust God. Keep your eyes, your heart, and thoughts focused on Him. If you’ll do that, you’ll gain a peace and a confidence in your heart that you have never had before.

Trust Him…with Everything.

Sun Stand Still. It’s more than just a book. It’s a movement. Steven Furtick, the author, is 30 years old and pastors a church  that he planted that is only 4-5 years old and has thousands of members. Incredible. God’s done incredible things in and through him and the people in his church.

After reading this book, you can see why God has done something so unique there. Steven’s prayer and hope is that through reading this book, that what is going on through his church won’t just be an anomaly, but something happening all over the planet, as people dare to have audacious faith and believe God for the impossible.

This book is a must read. It will enable you to dream God sized dreams for your life, enable you to dream again, enable you to step out in faith, and empower you to go after the vision God’s put in your heart.

Some highlights from the book:

• I’ll take that further: if you’re not daring to believe God for the impossible, you’re sleeping through some of the best parts of your Christian life.

• if the size of your vision for your life isn’t intimidating to you, there’s a good chance it’s insulting to God.

• does the brand of faith you live by produce the kinds of results in your life that you read about in the biblical stories of men and women of faith?

• The story God has scripted for your life isn’t inferior to Joshua’s—or anyone else’s.

• If we have the audacity to ask, God has the ability to perform.

• God gives people the exact experiences he wants them to have in order to shape the specific destiny he’s designed for them.

• I despaired at the thought that my life might slip by without seeing God show himself mightily on our behalf.

• When you examine the lives of people who are called to do great things for God, regardless of their age, you’ll usually notice three things: They offer God a long list of excuses. God doesn’t seem surprised. God doesn’t change his mind.

• “I’m not raising my kids to survive the world. I’m raising them to change it.”

• before God can do an impossible work in your world, you need to let him do a deep work in your heart.

• sometimes God has to let your dream die so that his vision for you can come alive.

• Live a life that can be explained only by the existence of a God who is infinitely great.

• If all God wanted to do was get right to the happy ending, you’d be in heaven by now. If his only intention were to make your dreams come true, he’d snap his fingers and your vision would appear out of thin air. But that’s not all God wants. And deep down, it’s not really all you want either. You want to learn to walk by faith, not by sight. And you can’t learn that without walking through periods of complete darkness. The apprehension and gut-level fear you’ll feel in these stages may make you turn back and pursue something safer.
