John 11:17 NKJV

So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

John 11:17 NKJV

This is such a piece of powerful information that we need to take notice of because many of us face challenges that seem no way out or overdue.

Martha and Mary had such a good relationship with Jesus, yet things did not turn out to be like what they were expecting.

This is when hopelessness sets in and doubt and unbelief starts to develop in our thoughts.

At a time like this, our thoughts go through the "What if I have done that or this" or "I wish this or that" would normally dominate our thought patterns.

But what Jesus said to Mary and Martha is "I am the resurrection and the life". Our thoughts should be anchored on who Jesus Christ is.

No matter how good our relationship with Jesus, we will be tossed and turned at every storm of life if we don't act upon God's word and put our focus on Jesus.

We need to anchor our faith in Christ and in Him alone. How do we do that? We do it by renewing our mind with the promises of God and His word. We occupy our mind with the greatness of who Jesus is.

We can rest assured that no matter what the circumstances are, we will positively move forward to a stronger faith in Christ.

It is important to know that Jesus is life, power, love, grace and everything that we need.

Let us build our confidence in Christ and build our imagination on the kingdom of God.
