Yes I Can

Don’t we underestimate God way too much. I think for me, I get stuck in my worldly viewpoint. I was golfing the other day and I had a long putt to make par, so I automatically discount it in my head before I even putt the ball, I think, I can’t make it. Why are we like that? Why do us human beings lean into the negative first, instead of leaning into God and realizing with God, all things are possible. When we lean into God's Kingdom Perspective, we say: Yes I Can!

Golf is one of my hobbies, I love the game, it relaxes me, but lately God has been speaking to me, giving me His godly wisdom while I play my game of golf. I think that is cool, that He meets me where I am at. And this is why I know that I must learn to lean into His Sovereign Sway more often than not, because this will help me know: Yes I Can!

When it comes to golf, I am not really as serious in my striving to make a par, but when it comes to my life with God, I want to make that par, I want to be successfully being a godly influence in the lives of others and be creating a reputation, a living legacy of a life lived well for God, a person who finishes well with a par every single time.

How do I get to a par when I have a long putt? There are so many variables in this life and I get distracted easily and don’t count the cost of making the par. Like… how fast are the greens? Are the greens wet? Is their an uphill battle? Is there an obstacle on the green I don’t see. Does the green have a curve right before the hole? How can I make that par with a long, long putt? Well, the one thing I have going for me is I am equipped by God daily. He has taught me much, especially about being alert to His Presence and wisdom that is right here, right now wisdom from every moment to every choice I make.

I am finding out that the only stumbling block that keeps me from par is my own self doubt. God has shaped and designed me to play the game of life and set me up to win. I have been personally designed by God to be a person who makes par. It is my own head, my own thoughts of self-doubt, that keep me over par. The Word of God says differently and my past victories say differently. Yes I Can. I can make par. I know God is with me, I stand on His Promises. I rehearse the victories I have had in the past because of Him. I remember Whose I am, where my identity is placed in Christ Jesus. I believe with Christ in me, all things are possible and I know whatever He has brought me to, He has purposefully equipped me for. So I pick up my putter and I putt for a par. God Wins.
