Deal with issues right away.

But He answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.” (Mark 6:37)

God wants us to deal with issues right away. He does not want us putting things off until they get to a point where they are major problems. We do that a lot. Things we might easily handle today grow into major issues when we ignore them. . . . medical issues, family struggles, even car repairs! God will not simply step i and fix things . . . He wants us to recognize our need for Him early on and wants us to ask!

Delaying a problem leads to more worry and anxiety. Dealing with the issue and allowing God to partner with us shows Him we are being responsible and that we also need Him to intervene. When we deal with things His way . . . sooner rather than later . . . we receive results . . . the results God desires for us!

In the scriptures above, there are thousands of hungry people present. The disciples desire to send the away for food. It wasn't their problem. Yet Jesus tells them to feed them! The disciples wanted to delay the problem and pass it on to someone else, but Jesus put it on them! They were forced to ask Jesus for help. The result was a miracle . . . thousands fed from a small bit of food!

What issues do we face today? Are we putting them off or can we deal with the issues right away? Seek His help . . .
