Jehovah Jireh.

Today was an interesting, draining day.
  I guess you could say that recently I've had little doubts of God's Provision, and have been thinking about it more often in the last couple of days. You would think I would have learned this, since a huge part of my testimony is how God consistently has provided for me. But a part of God's Provision, is not always financial....although it plays a huge part of it in my life...
   my car needed new tires, so i went in and got new tires put on, in the midst of that they found 3 other problems....and overall, it is God's provision that i spent all afternoon at the tire shop and that they kept finding these problems, becasue if not, it is very likely that a very bad accident could have happened in the near future, which would only make things worse.
   God is always providing for us. in every way possible. He knows exactly what we need, when we need it.  Jehovah Jireh.
  But i am learning, that we need to be responsible, with the provision God provides and roles he places us in. We can't just wait expectantly, but we need to be active and be good stewards of what's been given us. (Parable of the Talents)


Also, i don't have truth spoken to me enough. and tonight, apparantly I needed it, unexpectantly. And I appreciate that.

God's Provision. one thing that always make me love God so much more. because I cannot provide for myself in anyway possible.


VERSE OF THE DAY:
"And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 4:19


"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
 "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
Matthew 6:25-34
