This is My Doing FEB. 2, 2006

I read this today and thought it was awesome

The disappointments of life are simply the hidden appointments of love.This is my doing(1 Kings 12:24). I want you to learn that your weakness needs my strength, and your safety lies in letting me fight for you. Are you in difficult circumstances, surrounded by people who do not understand you, never ask your opinion, and always push you aside? This is my doing.

I am the God of circumstances. You did not come to this place by accident- you are exactly where I meant for you to be. Are you having problems with money, finding it hard to make ends meet? This is my doing for I am the one who keeps your finances, and I want you to learn to depend upon Me. My supply is limitless and I will meet all your needs (Phil. 4:19).

Are you experiencing a time of sorrow? This is my doing. I have allowed your earthly comforters to fail you so that by turning to me you may receive eternal encouragement and good hope (2 Thess. 2:16).

Have you longed to do some great work, but instead have been set aside on a bed of sickness and pain? This is my doing. You were so busy I could not get your attention, and I wanted to teach you some of my deepest truths. The pain will leave you as you learn to see Me in all things.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is.
