I’m in a pretty good stretch right now. I feel like the Lord is moving and I am headed in the right direction. It’s an awesome time and I praise God for it, but there’s always this little voice in me that says, “Just wait, something will mess it up.” I hate that voice and I suspect I know where it comes from.
Let’s face it we all have our struggles good times and bad–times when everything goes right and times where it feels like you can’t do anything right. The question is what do we do with those times. The right answer is to give the good times, the bad times and all the ones in the middle to Lord and trust Him to use them all for good. Romans 8:28 assures us that He will do just that for all those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. If you’re a believer, that’s you. If you’re not a believer, why not trust God and become one?
This is a good time for me and I give it to God, because while it is good, I know my God can make it great.
What do you do with your time?
Thanks Dave for this encouraging word. I really needed it today, things were going so good but it seems things are starting to turn sour, but as you wrote that the good, the bad and the inbetweens all need to be given over to the Lord and Praise to Him who brings us through it all, so I am giving this time over to Him. Thank you again I really needed this today!
Sorry I missed this. I pray things turn around for you soon. Keep fighting the good fight.
God bless,
Dave
Thank you Dave for the encouraging word. Things are getting better now and I am hoping and praying things do get even better. God was faithful to help me with His word to encourage me and I took extra time being in His presence, prayer and the Word during that lower time I was in a couple of weeks ago. But this word you sent today was timely because I still needed them. Thank you so much and God bless you for taking the time to reply. Joy in Jesus, Victoria
