I am thankful today for God's provision, protection and for always being there when life simply does not make sense.
I will call upon the Lord, Who is to be praised; so I shall be saved from my enemies.
Psalm 18:3
When I read this verse I don't necessarily think of my enemies in relation to people. I think of my enemies in the form of fear, doubt, discouragement, depression and lack of self-worth or confidence. We tend to make the Bible complicated and that is not what God intended. God is our rock and our strength. God is our refuge. God is our deliverer. God is all things to everyone. As a Christian we have to tap into His resources in order to receive what God has for us. It is so easy but we tend to make it extremely difficult.
I am thankful today that I serve a simple God. Life can become complicated when we are trying to be patient waiting for direction from the Lord. Sometimes we feel lost in the forest and cannot see the forest for all the trees! But even in the midst of all the turmoil and confusion, God is there and He knows what tomorrow holds. He knows why we don't have the answer today for our future. And He knows why He is taking us on the scenic route to fulfill His will for our lives. Just plug in to His resources. God is awesome and He wants you to experience Him in your own life.
Blessings!
