A simple thought for the day... It's often far easier to lower our concept of God than it is to raise the intensity of the faith that lies within us. We can jump to judgement and try to predetermine what we think God will or will not do or who He may or may not be. And, if we're not careful, those same thoughts may lead us to a disbelief as to whether God even has the power to intervene in our lives at all.
Diminishing our conception of God diminishes our perception of God, and so, from there, the dominos inevitably begin to fall. From there, the soul can become twisted, diluted and loses its way in a world that would try very hard to convince us that God is restricted to being only who we think Him to be on our worst days. Don't fall for it. I'm so thankful that God is who He is, regardless of my often skewed conception of Him! Stay connected to God through His Word and feed your mind and heart with who He really is by the defining standard and truth of Scripture. He is and will always remain bigger, more powerful, more sovereign, more compassionate, more merciful and more loving than we can grasp with the human mind. Don't let Satan, the author of lies, use the circumstances in your life to divide your attention between situation and sovereignty.
