Revelation 17:17

For God put a plan into their minds, a plan that will carry out His purposes.

What instruction, plan, or invitation has God placed into your mind?

Have you been doubtful, perhaps wondering "how can I possibly carry it out?"

^this is the question that I asked God.

His answer came through an interaction with my young daughter, as it most often does:

She was attempting to blow out a double-wick candle. She tried and tried, but was fearful of getting burnt. Therefore, she continued to blow her hardest- from too far of a distance. I (unbeknownst to her. Or, did she notice?) assisted her with my own breath, from behind her, to blow the candle out. She turned and smiled at me, hugely. She did it. We did it.

Philippians 4:13 I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.
