I found myself asking God during the closing prayer in our service to turn the difficult situations in our people's lives to impossible ones so that they would be required to act in faith rather than still trying to work on the things that only God can solve. I wonder, is that to far or is that just the type of prayer Jesus would be asking for His disciples? Should we ask God to move things to that point? How much time do we waste trying to solve what only God can settle? The man inside of me screams,"I can do it" while the child of faith wants to let it go. In Hebrews 4 it tells us that if we are to labor we need to "labor to enter into rest." I don't think I have the answer but I have to believe that God is willing to solve more than we let Him. Next time I want to go solve it, I might just ask God to make it so I can't and see what happens.
Just a thought
