"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones." - Proverbs 3:5-8
Was talking to someone at the church we attend in Texas yesterday. They mentioned that they had not seen us for a while. I told them that we had been in Florida. We don't know each other well so I added that were in Texas because of Hurricane Harvey and in Florida because of Hurricane Ian. They asked how long we would be back to which I replied "Until the Lord sends us out again." The wife said, "You are change in God's pocket."
Think about that for a moment. People don't carry change in their pockets much anymore. It was not so long ago that we all did. We are all God's resources available to be "spent" for whatever purpose God's decides. Knowing that it is indeed God who is speaking, Martie and I are ready to go at the drop of a hat - or more correctly, a word from the Lord.
"A man’s heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps." - Proverbs 16:9
What about you? Doesn't matter if you are a penny, nickel, dime, or quarter. You have value to God and for His purposes.
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:11-13
Think about it – Pray about it – Believe it – Walk in it. Let your light shine and give God the glory.
By Faith Alone By His Grace Alone And For His Glory Alone
