He will come through for you.
He has never forgotten his promise to provide and to never leave you.
God’s timing is perfect.
Behold, at the time( God says) I will undo all that affect you. Zephaniah 3 verse 19.
What an amazing promise.

How do you trust God?
That is a good question.
Do you trust God with all your heart.
Do you trust God with nothing wavering?
Do you have doubts about his ability to help you?
These questions are hard but they need to be asked so you can stand back and think about your answer.
I know trust is a very elusive commodity. It isn’t something that comes easy for me.
Yet, with God it should be easy because he has never disappoints me.
The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty. Zephaniah 3 verse 17.
He can do anything.
Nothing will harm you…
God promises…
No weapon that is formed against you shall prosperity and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgement thou shalt condemn. This is the héritage of the servant of the Lord. Isaiah 54 verse 17.
God is everything..
He says, ” Look unto me, and be you saved…” Isaiah 45 verse 22.
Not one good thing will he withhold from those who seek Him, from those who love him, from those who follow hard after Him and walk in his ways.
What does God mean to you?
He is my provider.
Jehovah -jireh
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and the hidden riches of secret places, that thou may know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name.
Isaiah 45 verse 3
One more promise…
I will go before you and make crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron…I am the Lord and there is none else.
God prepares a way when there is no way.
He makes my path straight and gives me light for my feet.
When he makes a promise no one can stop it.
No one can stand against it.
He is God.
Adapted from Isaiah 44 verse 2.
Overlooked again and not the flavor of the month.
Missed the point again?
Too bad?
Squelch that unhealthy thought.
No child of God is a loser.
How can we be losers when our father is the Most High God?
Sure life is hard. Debt is high and money seems to have wings.
Pray a prayer of faith and believe like Habakkuk did.
In chapter 3, he says even though there is no fruit on the trees, and no meat, no provision to be had yet he says he will rejoice and joy in the God of his salvation.
He knew God will not leave him or his people destitute.
God will always provide.
His name is Jehovah – jireh
The Lord will provide.
Overlooked
Sometimes, you may feel like you seem to fade into the background, where no one can see you.
You think if you just do something great, say something snappy or even witty to get good attention, then people will see you. They will know you, know your name.
But life doesn’t work like that. People either like you, gravate to you, or maybe they just don’t.
Being overlooked is not anything anyone wants to be.
We all want to be seen.
We all want to be heard.
Silence can be deafening.
Silence can be painful and lonely.
If you are a child of God, you are blessed.
You are never alone or overlooked.
All of God’s children have a voice.
A voice that God gave to us so we can use it to call out from that lonely place for help for guidance for companionship.
God hears.
He answers.
He knows you.
He sees you.
He remembers his promise forever concerning you. Psalm 105 verse 8.
God says in the Bible, which is his word.
Behold I have graven you upon the palms of my hands. Isaiah 49 verse 16.
He remembers you.
He remembers his child and looks out for you like the father in the story of the prodigal son. God is prepared for you. Like that father,he can see you at a distance. And will have compassion and run to you with arms wide open.
He is waiting for you.
He cares when others don’t….
Redeeming Time
Time waits on no one. It marches on even when we are caught at an impasse and does not stop for anyone. It is the constant in life. Tick tock. Tick Tock…
I try not to be lazy. I try to use up as much time as I am given in a day. I am not perfect with my results, but at the end of the day I hope my ways please the Lord, and I have not wasted my time.
Death of a friend…
The home call of a family friend, someone I have known from childhood, puts life into perspective.
Life is so fleeting with all the ups and downs. Yet, within the shadows of these trials and tribulations, there are moments of joy and blessing where there is singing and laughter. The complexities of living are something to hold fast and to give God thanks for all he has done and all he will do.
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loaded us with benefits. Psalm 68 verse 19.
