      How can a Christian’s life be changed from a lumbering high-flyin’ easy out, to an over-the-fence routine? It has to do with the power in the swing, the alignment of the bat, and perfect timing. I can’t do it. I’ve tried until my shoulders simply can no longer take the strain. I know I can’t. Don’t encourage me anymore, I can’t.  No, I don’t have a little engine in me anymore, saying, “I think I can, I think I can.” I think I can’t.

     I ‘got saved,’ and told Jesus I was opening the door to my heart. I’ve read the Bible over forty years. My mind is full of scripture and I voice it much.

     Jesus did nothing of Himself, and without Him, I can do nothing (John 5:25). I do plenty of that, and once in a while God does things kind of by accident, in spite of me it seems.

     Were the “Acts of the Apostles,” actually the “acts of the Holy Spirit?” Was what Jesus did actually what the Holy Spirit did? If this is so, then, I really can do all things “through Christ which strengthens me” (Phil.4:13).

     Is this true? Even if it is, how can I get on board?

     The Lord said, “Only believe, all things are possible to him that believeth” (John 9:23).

     When the waters overflow you, I will save you, even when your faith is weak and you swim in vain against the current, I will never leave you or forsake you. (Hebrew 13:5)

     When you fall I will lift you up. I love you with an everlasting love. My mercy is forever. Come, learn of me. Only believe. All things are possible to him who believeth.   

    It is good to cease from my own works.  This is your Sabbath, He says, your rest, and it is to be forever. Let me take the helm. Let my river flow.
