He has a plan!
“I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me.”
Psalms 57:2
As I sat in my room today reading from the book of Luke I look up and just stared at myself in the mirror and couldn’t help but cry and think of this scripture. I had been praying this scripture over my life for the past 10 months. Surrendering my life to God and giving him complete access to do what ever he wants with it.
As I looked into the mirror, all I could see is the person God has intended me to be. Not one bad thought came to my head. Not one remark about how I looked, or felt in the moment. what I saw was pure beauty. I reflected on all the amazing things God had done in my life over the past 10 months; Being saved, moving back to Arkansas, providing a way for me to get out of debt and get my license back, my job which I absolutely love and adore, a car to get me to all the places I need to go, friends who I can disciple and mentor, ministry opportunities, traveling to be apart of revival, and the biggest one yet, calling me to be a missionary! I was overwhelmed with emotions (Good ones of course!) I had never felt so proud of myself. EVER! This moment truly felt like I saw myself through Gods eyes and it was completely indescribable but a moment I will never forget.
The scripture I had been praying over myself for months was finally revealed to me. It’s always been there but I never seen it until today.
I read this insert earlier today and just thought I’d share with y’all….
Since God is sovereign, and this world is his, then every moment, in a sense, is a moment of providence. Wherever you find yourself right now has come by the process of events he ordained. Every past moment of your life has led to your now. The same will be true tonight, and tomorrow, and ten years in the future. Our experience of providence is our experience of the present, which we know has been wondrously woven together by God.
And because God is behind it all, we, as those united to Christ by faith, are assured of this: God’s providence neither gets it wrong nor lets us go, ever.
Be faithful and trust in his plan. He’s working, even if you don’t see it.
