I have a great Intercessor!

With Jesus as my intercessor, I truly need not fear.

I recently lost a $5k deal due to negligence and I was beating myself up over it, but then with faith I prayed to God that in future, I will close whatever deals that lands on my hands, and since then, work has been smooth, and I closed the month's sales at about $12k, and it was only my 1st month at my job!

I am so touched by how much He cares and how much He loves me, that He will surely watch over me, and fight my case for me, for His thoughts toward me are good; thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give me a future and a hope. And that's exactly what I can lean on.. having that assurance that He is always For me!

I am recently reading this book called "THE SHACK", and it certainly drew a very mind-blowing perspective for me! Sometimes, our limited view of God makes us misconstrue His plans when actually everything He has for us is good. Like how the Bible says, "all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose."

"That is a hard pill to swallow; choosing to only live in me. To do that you must know me enough to trust me and learn to rest in my inherent goodness."
-The Shack

For indeed we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need..

I thank God for fighting my battles for me, so that I need not ever be afraid!
