Thanks be to God for....- A very patient husband who loves me and takes care of our family
- Family who is very supportive, understanding, and loving
- An upcoming job interview for a job I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY want
- After sorrow comes great joy (John 16:17-24)
- A reminder from a friend not to worry, that God is in control and all things in His timing
This in an excerpt from a friends email, and it really reminded me that God is in control, loves us and will take care of our needs.
"It's easy for me to worry about these things, but God has been reminding me not to worry, because of WHO He is and how that relates to His promises. Matthew 6 talks about all the things in nature that God takes care of, while we are fretting if we will have enough to eat, drink and wear. He reminds us again how much God loves us by describing us as "valuable" to the Father. Then He says: "So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
The verse being referred to is Matthew 6:31-33
