Is The Problem Still The Problem?

Scribble it

Is that HUGE problem you are facing still even a problem?

Two weeks ago I wrote some ‘prayer notes’ about some of the large challenges for our family in the current moment. I wanted to remind myself to ask God over and over again about these specific problems/challenges/desires. I had 4 items on the list of big challenges. These were NOT small things at all. In fact, they seemed massive and insurmountable (for me).

And… Then I forgot about the notes altogether. I lost track of the file. Do you ever do that?

I didn’t forget about the problems and I did pray about them (somewhat), but the notes were just MIA for the last 2 weeks.

Guess what…

I read through those notes again today and the problems are not really even problems anymore. One has been resolved completely already. Two of the others have a clear resolution in sight. The fourth one, well, it really wasn’t a big deal (in hindsight).

Here are the takeways:

  • I asked Him

  • He did help me solve the problems (in ways beyond my power)

  • I could only see that in hindsight

  • I would have forgotten if I hadn’t written it down

  • I’m grateful and I thanked Him

It’s so important that you don’t skip a step
