Suddenly & Abundantly

Then Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced over what God had prepared for the people, because the thing came about suddenly. 2 Chronicles 29:36

Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us. Ephesians 3:20

Recently, there has been a lot of social media attention surrounding a video in which a guy gave his opinion on a product that was made by a famous singer.  The video went viral and brought a lot of attention to the singer's product. As a result the singer was able to make tons of money off of the product.  I was already following the guy that made the video because he is very talented and funny.  But this video in particular changed his life. Social media of course, chose to focus on the negative and debate about whether or not the singer owed the young man money for boosting sales.

I however, chose to look at things from another vantage point.  I didn't focus on the debates about money and what not.  I was too busy being in awe of how God was working in this young mans life.  How quickly God catapulted this young man's career...overnight!  This young man was just doing what he loves to do, which is making videos to make others laugh.  And it opened doors for him that he probably never dreamed. I'm sure he didn't have any idea that this one video would change his life forever.  I continue to follow him and the opportunities that he is being blessed with are amazing.    

Following his story has strengthened my own faith as it made me think of God's amazing abilities. How we could be just going about our day-to-day as usual, then suddenly God opens a door that changes our lives forever.  God has the ability to do amazing things far above what we could have ever imagined and he has the ability to do it quickly.  Life can get a little tough at times as we face various tests and trials.  Sometimes life can feel boring and mundane...even purposeless.  But if our hope and trust is in God, He has the ability to do great and mighty things in us, through us, and for us.  One touch from God and our seemingly impossible situations can be turned around in an instant.  God can not only turn our situations around suddenly, He can far exceed our expectations.  Cause our wildest dreams to become a reality.  He is miracle working God!   Whether you are facing tumultuous situations or just wanting more out of life, invite God in and allow Him to work on your behalf.  He is able to work suddenly and abundantly!
