"We can be certain that God will give us the strength and resources we need to live through any situation in life that he ordains. The will of God will never take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us."

Day 7 of my beautiful journey.
For the past couple of days God has waited until later in the afternoon to reveal His beauty to me. But today He revealed it to me late last night/early this morning. It was the beauty of God's provision. I have been unemployed for the last three months, this is the longest I have gone without a job since I was 13 and quit my position at the Oil Lamp (anyone remember that old dive?). It has been a time of great struggle for me. It was one of the reasons I began the beauty project so that I could get my mind off of things. I found my days filled with lots of waiting and lots of xbox. But alas it appears that this period in my life has finally come to pass. God has blessed me with the opportunity to serve at Gretna Community Church in Gretna, NE. I am so excited about serving the Lord there, for many reasons. So today I am reveling in the beauty of God's provision. He is wonderful, and his provision is overwhelming.

Oh, my husband and I know this feeling...being unemployed and praying like crazy, then one day! God answers, and He had it in mind all along. Happy for you!
ReplyDeleteAmen, buddy. That is my favorite quote from Billy Graham. Our God is indeed awesome. So proud of your accomplishments and humbled by the fact that they occur only by the Grace of God. Love you.
