God’s Provision

 

There is nothing like the comfort and peace of calmed happy thoughts. Jesus invites you to come live in God's home. 

Matthew chapter 6 verses 32-34.

Your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them, and He will give them to you if you give Him first place in your life and live as He wants you to.

 

He is there; He is real, yet so many of us choose to ignore Him.

   From the moment we are born we are taken care of. We are watched over to make sure we grow healthy and strong. We are taught how to speak and that food is a necessity of living. We learn that having shelter protects us from the changing seasons. We learn that we need to guard ourselves from predators, either human or animal.

   All of these things make us learn to be self-efficient. It would be nice if that is all that was needed, but there is so much more to life. It becomes complicated and hard to deal with. People do things that make us distance ourselves from them. Sometimes the words that come from us are not the wisest and are not helpful. Alcohol and drugs can blank out the daily issues but the after effects cause pain and hurt. Addictions can be hard to break. Money is not easy to come by, but happiness is not bought.

   Being truthful about who we are and what we have going on in our lives helps us to be self-aware and better prepared to make plans. With God there is no question about who He is and He has offered His Son to guide you in all truth. The only issue is you, looking at Him, as someone who can help. It is only when you are ready, that you will know that He is real.

   The bible can make you aware of who God is. It will bring you to know Jesus and the Holy Spirit. It can change your life as you learn to trust in who He is and His promises. God is not just something you shop for and then decide whether you like it or not. Life with God means stepping away from all that you have come accustomed to and making the decision to live your life with Him. 

   What Jesus did for us was to tear down the barriers that stood between God and you. Your barriers are the way you have lived your life and Jesus has made it possible for you to come live in the Holy Presence of God. It is a clean life free from addictions, free from judgement and filled with glorious love for all people and things. 

   It is just like being a curious child all over again. Every moment is held close to you and God. You talk to Him about everything and get to know Him as Jesus does. God's provision is having you in life with Him. 

Thank You Father for Jesus. Thank You for opening the doors when they are knocked upon. 😊        

 

Hebrews chapter 9 verse 15.

Christ came with this new agreement so that all who are invited may come and have forever all the wonders God has promised them. 

John chapter 8 verses 42 and 43.

Jesus told them, "If that were so, then you would love Me, for I have come to you from God. I am not here on My own, but He sent Me. Why can't you understand what I am saying? It is because you are prevented from doing so!

  

John chapter 8 verses 25-27.

“Tell us who You are,” they demanded. Jesus replied, “I am the one I have always claimed to be. I could condemn you for much and teach you much, but I won’t, for I only say what I am told to by the one who sent Me; and He is Truth.” But they still did not understand that He was talking to them about God.    

Genesis chapter 1 verse 29.

And God told man; “Look! I have given you the seed-bearing plants throughout the earth, and all the fruit trees for your food.”

  

Philippians chapter 2 verse 13.

For God is at work within you, helping you want to obey Him, and then helping you to do what He wants.
