I Can Do Nothing Without God

“Jesus gave this answer: I tell you the truth, the son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the father does the son also does.”

No! We cannot do anything without God. If the son can do nothing by himself, this is saying to me I can do nothing by myself. I can do only what I see Christ do because he left a pattern of what I should do in the word of God. As a Christian I am to be Christ-like. The road map Christ left is for me to follow and for everyone else who is following Christ, amen

Philippians 4:13 tells me, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” This is another reminder that I can do nothing by myself.

“Psychologist gave me this answer: We humans lie to get by the truth, man can do anything he chose’s at his own expense and thru self will.” What we chose to do willingly is another deal. Maybe, encouragement thru another mans expense or will is sometimes a motivational tool to guide us thru life’s wonders. We see, usually what we chose to see, sometimes what others see, also by choice thru acceptance in belief within our own boundaries. Limits should hold us back from everything, because they do. I agree with myself.

I agree with you. I don't know how some can wonder if there is a God. I am reminded daily of the blessings he has given me. The other day my son was looking out the window quietly. I went to him and asked what he was doing. He stated God made the trees, grass & clouds. I said yes he did. He told me if you just stop & look at what God has made you can see how awesome he is & how beautiful it is. I wish for him to always remember this. When my day is hectic & I see the window I remember what he said.

Thank you for this inspiration! I've been going through some difficult times personally and just this reminder of how important God is in my life helps me to see the big picture. God has everything under control and won't put me through something I can't handle. Thanks again. Amber - www.elifeplans.com
