Hello wonderful ladies! Apparently I have been on blogging vacation. I love reading what all of you say, but have such a hard time thinking of something profound enough to say to you all. (LOL I know I am a huge dork.) Anyone on who has known me for more than a day can tell you that I never run out of things to say, but for some reason when I start typing I am just at a loss for words. There are so many things happening in my life and the lives of those around me that it seems just blogging about day to day stuff would be trivial. But isn't God in the day to day stuff? I think about how stressed out I am about the future and what may or may not happen and I wonder why it is so hard to remember that I serve a BIG God who is always in control of each and ever minute of my life. There are times in my life when I am unaware that the girls are doing something potentially dangerous, like I don't know, getting ahold of the superglue and using it as fingernail polish. But there is never a second that God loses track of me. He always knows what I am doing and when I am doing it and what is even more He knows what comes next.
25Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34Take therefore no thought for the morrow....
This passage is one I have heard since I was just a child, but I still haven't grasped it. I still haven't figured out that no matter what God is in control of my life. So that is my goal for the month of May. To just remember that God is in control of everything including (but not limited too) my petty day to day life.
I love you all and am praying for you and your families!
