Over the past several months God has been growing me in many ways. The most significant being the growing of my faith. As time goes by and life is happening it’s hard to see how God is working. I have get so wrapped up in my own problems, it’s hard for me to see how God is working out my struggles for the good.
I have written about the situation with my grandfather in a previous post. While I was struggling with finding work, and moving back to KY from TN, while we were going through my grandfathers illness, and then his passing, God was orchestrating it all. God brought me back north to be able to be there for my grandma as my grandpa was going through his treatments and then as he passed I was able to be there to help in a situation I could not have imagined.
Since his passing I have been able to stay in the house and help my grandma, I have found an amazing job at the Creation Museum, working as a zoo keeper, and I absolutely love it. I couldn’t or wouldn’t have had that opportunity had I stayed in TN.
God always provides. He is the one who opens and closes the doors in our lives. He has always provided for my needs and I continue to trust that He will continue to do so. I want to always grow, whether that be here in the US or overseas somewhere. I want to be used wherever He places me, and to live in the boldness of Christ. God has amazing things for me wherever He places me and I need to accept that. It may not be everything I planned but His plans are always best.
Time Always turns, it cannot be stopped. In the beginning God created time. It did not exist before He spoke it into being. Time is in His hands and His hands only. He controls it… We merely use it.
We keep, tell and track time but we cannot keep it; we have no control over it, when time passes those moments are lost forever. It comes and goes as God commands it.
My time, therefore, is Gods time. It belongs to Him and I am only a steward of it. How then do I use the wonderful privilege of time which God has given me?
