“Don’t Disrespect God By Doubting!”
Tuesday, February 13th, 2007The title of this blog entry is actually what a dear friend and mentor said to me the other night.
I had recently been approached by a potential client who needed my help and I called my mentor for some subject matter advice. Turns out my mentor has the gift of discernment. So, when she called me, she started answering my question before I asked it, only…she was answering the doubts that I had about taking the case (and other cases) in the first place.
After explaining to me about all of the doubts that I had yet to ever mention to her in the first place, she told me, “God has given you a case. He wouldn’t give it to you and not give you what you need to be successful. Don’t disrespect God by doubting. That would be like not having faith.”
Well, what happened after I took advice is even more astounding to me. You see, my mentor had also mentioned that sometimes the things you need from God will come from other people; maybe even nonbelievers. Imagine my amazement when within one week, another client of mine received an unexpected blessing from an opponent in her case. This case has been going on for nearly a decade and this poor woman hadn’t gotten a break from the judge or the other side. I get a lecture from my mentor about having faith. I surrender; then we receive this blessing. Okay, Lord. I get it now.
The blessings haven’t stopped either. I really wanted to share this testimony with others and say “Thank you” to my Lord and Master. I surrender all.
