Matthew 6:25...25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?...., originally uploaded by Katherine Gruender.
26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
I must admit i AM a worrier of huge proportions! But when those times come (far too often) i find myself quoting these verses to myself over and over again.
We are in horrible times right now as a country. But i must tell you it is in the worst times that i have seen God work his greatest miracles. I think he uses these times to draw us to him and some of us back to Him. But i know some of you are wondering "where is God"! Well He never left. He is right here. He knows our futures, our tomorrows and our todays. We just need to trust Him. I know He has NEVER let me done and God is the same today as He was yesterday.
Praise God & Amen sister!!! ♥ to you!
ReplyDeleteInterestingly, I have a deep connection with God. I have had some spiritual experiences that have been so concrete, that I could never doubt, or deny God. I know when the connection is weak... it's me :-) He didn't move, I did :-) I also have the feeling like, I'm a fish in water. God's the water. I spent years swimming around looking for him, then one day, I realized he was there all along. And he always will be.
ReplyDeleteThat's such an inspirational entry!
