God Provides Far More Than Imagined

Have you ever really thought about all that God has provided in your life? Have you ever marveled at His perfect timing? Do you thank Him, trust Him, worship Him and spend time with Him? All He wants from us is our time, availability and dependence upon Him. My God has provided bigger and better than I could ever have dreamed or hoped for. I must always remember His timing is perfect. As I begin a new chapter in my life, it comes with angst, trepidation, uncertainty, loneliness, hope, joy, peace and comfort. How, you might ask can it be all those things? Well, when I walk in my flesh apart from Christ, I feel angst, trepidation, uncertainty and loneliness. Why? Because all I consider is ME. Apart from Him (I) can do NOTHING. I get in the way of seeing His big picture, His perfect timing, and purpose for my life. When I walk in HIS spirit, I feel hope, joy, peace and comfort. For in HIM I can do all things. He is MY hope. He is MY joy. He is MY peace. He is MY comfort. No one or anything can provide those things only MY LORD. I need to walk moment by moment with my eyes on Him, not in my circumstances, nor the people around me nor my feelings. They will ALWAYS let me down and leave me feeling empty. My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus and HIS righteousness. If I truly believe God's timing is perfect, and that I am here to be used by Him, for such a time as this, than  I can rest in knowing He has not forgotten about me, left me alone or abandoned me in any way. He holds me in His hands, protects me, comforts me, loves me unconditionally and will never let me go. MY GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD!!!!!!
