Frankly, On Faith: We Can Do All Things

by Molly Jo Realy @MollyJoRealy

So often the world says we can’t do this or we shouldn’t do that, and if we try, it has to be a blood bath competition.

The Bible says, softly, we can do all things. But we do these things through Christ, who will give us strength.

When we focus on the Father-Son-Spirit Trinity, our souls learn to recognize that while we can do all things, it’s not always advisable. With true faith the size of a mustard seed, we can move mountains. We can do what we once thought impossible.

Frankly, On Faith: Be Their Esther

by Molly Jo Realy @RealMojo68

We often struggle with purpose. What are we supposed to do in life, and does it even matter to anyone else if we don’t do it?

In a nutshell, yes.

Now, it may not come to us in a lightning flash, overnight, or even over a year. It may take a while for us to develop or realize what we have to offer. But here’s the point:

We do have something to offer. Every single one of us.

And someone else is waiting to receive it.

God put young Esther in the care of her … read the rest. . .

Frankly, On Faith: Let’s Be Clear

by Molly Jo Realy @RealMojo68

How often do we ask God for something based off what we think we need to get there?

Our life-filter is our own experiences, our own thought processes. But in doing so, we muddy God’s waters. We get caught up in our own mire rather than His refreshing life streams. We try to forge our own path holding old maps so close to our eyes we can’t see where we’re really going.

Frankly, On Faith: New Beginnings

by Molly Jo Realy @RealMojo68

We all struggle. Sometimes it’s openly, sometimes it’s private. Sometimes we know the solution but can’t reach it. Sometimes we don’t have a clue what’s wrong. We just know things need to change.

God says, “Don’t worry about it. I got your back.”

We go to Him in thanksgiving for the little things, the big things, the in-between things. We ask for His guidance, His help, His strength, and His providence.

We remind Him of the great things He has already done, and we stand in awe at His greatness.

There’s something so humbling when … read the rest. . .

Frankly, On Faith: Be Still.

by Molly Jo Realy @RealMojo68

It’s a hard thing, to just be still. Even if the body isn’t moving, the mind is. Here, the grocery list. There, repairs to be made.

Emotions get worked up. Why am I doing nothing? I need to do something. Why aren’t those things getting done?

I should put this time to use. I should at least read my Bible. Or pray. Yes, I can pray. But not for myself. For others. Let’s see . . . My friends who are going through that thing. I really should call and see how they’re doing.
