Until then..... we trust.

I was chatting with one of my Internet friends and we were praying for healing for herself and family. She was sharing a great verse from Isaiah.

Isaiah 41:10: So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

She was holding on to that verse and said it was her verse for the day. As we were talking, I had noted that they have been through so much and this was her response----

Not as much as some - and whenever the Lord says "enough" we will gladly agree but until then - we trust

We TRUST--Two words--words of faith. It takes great faith in God to truly just TRUST. I had been having a bit of a pity party for myself that day. Bad day at work and feeling a bit pushed down, it compares so little to "what some" are going through.. Had I even "TRUSTed" it to the Lord. No! I had grumbled and complained and kept fuming over and over inside. I was visiting with this friend who is having some tough times and she was "TRUSTing" God... Oh whoa to me.... Put me in the proper place and attitude for my next day at work.

So if you are feeling a bit down or frustrated, remember what my friend said in her time of need "we trust". Trust God with those things that easily set us back and give it to Him in Faith believing that He will answer and do so according to His will and plan for you..

Thank you God for bringing this friend and her words to me, thank you Holy Spirit for allowing them to jump off the screen and into my heart.

Isn't it great to know.

Thanks to a wonderful friend who gave this to me...Thanks for the encouraging word!!

1. The bible will still have all the answers.

2. Prayer will still work

3. The Holy Spirit will still move.

4. God will still inhabit the praises of His people.

5. There will still be God annointed preaching.

ISN'T IT GREAT TO KNOW, WHO IS STILL IN CONTROL?

<<<< blown away >>>>>

A friend said something today that gave me such a wonderful visual I just had to share...

"I may have been blown out of the water...but I landed in the arms of my Jesus. "

Wow, what an awesome thought that when we may be down or perhaps devasted, we can land in our heavenly father's arms. For us single gals, it is even more comforting to know that there is someone there to hear our cries and calm our fears. Yes, I have always known and trusted that the Lord was and is always there for me.. But never have I visualized it this way!! Do you get the picture here, not only is He there but He's holding me. He's my support, my uplifter, my "get you through this" person. Thank you Lord!!

Perhaps you are going through something today or you may have a friend that is struggling. Give them the encouragement that the Lord can be their comfort and support in their time of need!
