It's kind of, super late & I find myself harshly praying against all of these anxious thoughts, about the coming days/weeks/months... they are tightly holding me captive.
THEN I read this...
"Believe God is always the God you know Him to be when you are nearest to Him. Then think how unnecessary and disrespectful worry is! Let the attitude of your life be a continual willingness to “go out” in dependence upon God."
[side note: I LOVE that God chooses to speak RIGHT to us...at thee exact time we NEED to hear Him...if we would just fine tune our ears to hear Him more often :: guilty]
_ these worry/anxious thoughts are keeping me awake. plus I'm starting to feel like Abraham right about now...even though I know I'm physically going to Australia...I still feel like I don't truly know who/where/what/how/when I'm going to be used by God in the next 6 months.
"By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going."
Hebrews 11:8
*an added bonus...
[This HIT me in the face]
"The end of a matter is better than its beginning [a.k.a. right now], and patience is better than pride."
Ecclesiastes 7:8
_ bottom line; God IS God & I am NOT. He IS the provider & I am NOT. Jesus chooses to see me, when I've been choosing not to see/find Him. Increasing of my faith + trust, WILL decrease my worry/anxious thoughts !!
mmm...it could be that none of this makes sense...they're just jumbled up words/thoughts/emotions that I needed to spout out. thanks for listening.
