I know that
Tuesday, September 21, 2010
Often times we forget exactly how big God is. We (more specifically, I) worry about the smallest things and try figuring out ways to put our hands in the issue, stir it up, and see what outcome we will get. We forget to pray and ask God for His help . . . and when we do pray and don't get the answer on our timing, we make an attempt at playing God again (only to find ourselves in the same hole!).
After reading another blog today, I was reminded that God is big. He knows what we need before we even know what we need; He's working on our prayers before they even leave our lips. One thing that I've been learning though, is that we need to show God our need and dependency for Him; sure, he knows, but it takes a whole lot more for us to put our faith into practice.
I am recently engaged. My fiance works in the construction business and because this is the down time, he could be getting laid off any day now. I work but not getting the best pay; I cannot find another job that I am even remotely interested in . . . or even know where God wants me. We are planning a wedding and trying to pay off bills. I want to live in something we can call our own. I want to start a family as soon as possible. The problem with all of this is that my faith is not big enough to bring me through these worries. My God is, though. I know that.
