Good morning, readers :)
Within the past month, God has answered my prayers in an unexpected way, and I would like to share!
I have realized that God really knows who we are. He even listens to us when we aren't necessarily praying. God knows our thoughts and our desires. He knows what we want and need in life. God will provide for us, as long as we love Him, and it is according to His will.
Psalm 139: 1-5 "You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me."
Next year I am living off campus. Money is really tight now in my family and I'm working as much as I can in order to prepare myself for next school year. I need pots and pans. I need a place to put my clothes into. I need a lamp. I need a car to do my student teaching. There are so many things I need in order to live off campus, and it's making me nervous because it is so expensive. God knows that I am worried about my plans for the summer and for the school year in the fall.
When you love God, God will provide. Out of the blue, I've been given so many things for next year. For instance, my mom randomly bought me one of the most expensive pot and pan sets (that lasts a LIFETIME!) for a super super cheap price. She also bought me a lot of baking supplies also for very cheap. I've also been offered their very nice bedroom set. Wait, what? I was stoked! I've never been so happy in my life about pans and furniture for my next home. And how was this possible? My family does not have the money right now to be buying new things. This is crazy! I'm so excited. Just as Matthew 19:26 says, "Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'"
God will provide for us, even when we think it is not possible. But just as the book of Matthew says, things are impossible with man, but with God, all things are possible. Praise Him for being all powerful and all knowing, and for giving to those who love Him.
Romans 8:28 "And we know in that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
