God has really been speaking to my heart about my own faith. Part of the reason I can become so anxious about my situation, about the future, about most anything is because I don't have the faith in God that I should have. God has promised to supply my needs. He has promised to work all things for my good. I just keep taking that burden back on my own shoulders and carrying it as if God cannot or will not provide. I told you how my Pastor started teaching in Matthew 6 on Wednesdays. About fear and anxiety. The other day I was reading a devotional and the author suggested reading through (or even singing) hymns after having your Bible study. She stated how encouraging those old hymns can be, you know, the ones that have withstood the test of time. The very first hymn she suggested was "Trust and Obey" I just had to laugh to myself at how intimate God can be in our lives. Everything he's showing me lately is pointing me in one direction, and that's trusting him.
For there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus
But to trust and obey

Isn't funny how GOD knows what we need, and when we need it :-D. I know its hard not worry or be concerned about the future, but when we can fully trusting and realize HE holds our future..the less ulcers and gray hairs we will have :-). Love you sweetheart. ♥ momma
