John 2
God has a plan - He did so when He created the world, when He sent His Son and He has a plan for all of us. We need to be mindful of this, particularly in the middle of circumstances when we may question whether God exists at all. When the Jews wandered in the desert in Exodus and found themselves hemmed in by the chasing Egyptians and the Red Sea, they said this: "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the desert to die? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?"
While from time to time it understandable that we doubt God is doing something in our lives, we do need to recognize that God is ALWAYS doing something in our lives and You can be sure it has something to do with bringing Him glory - either through you or in You. This view should make it much easier for You to endure.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an amazing God who loves me and I know You are always doing something in my life - thank You for always being with me! I am not deserving of such love. I worry and I stress out. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome my sin and turn towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You love me. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message to me today and every day.
“Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.” v4
