"You can trust me"… GOD

27 Oct

Throughout scripture we can find GOD continuously saying to us… “Trust me, Trust me, You can Trust me”…

A recent devotion I read, discussed “releasing all of our worries into HIS care”, in order to clear the way to seek HIS face unhindered.

Instead of regretting or resenting the way things are, we should thank God in all circumstances. (1Thess.5:18) It’s in that spirit we all have been praying and believing.

God is more than Faithful. (Psalm 89)

On October 24, I accepted an offer from Horne LLP that will lead us back to Jackson, MS. Since coming to Jackson last April (we thought temporarily) I sensed a stirring in my heart that change might be coming. The disaster relief project (Katrina) had rejuvenated my career and created a sense of “helping others”. It seemed that the LORD was moving me out of the “comfort zone” of the past few years.

So on Monday, November 3, we will begin a new chapter in my professional life. Psalm 32:8 gives much comfort in His leadership.. “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go, I will counsel you and watch over you.”

To all of you who have lifted our family up with your prayers, we say THANK YOU! As we begin the process of transitioning from our home in Georgia, we continue to ask for your prayers.

Psalm 91:1 has been a verse of comfort to me this year. “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High, will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.”

My prayer for us all is.. that we will Trust in the LORD with All of our heart, not lean on our own understanding. Acknowledge Him in All our ways and know that He will direct our paths. Prov.3:5-6

We can then be assured that He is with us and will watch over us wherever we go. (Joshua 1:9)

HE will meet All our needs according to HIS glorious riches. (Phil. 4:19)

Nothing in all creation will seperate us from HIS great love. (Rom. 8:35)

and so much more.

God is SO Good!

IT’S ABOUT TIME…DON’T YOU THINK?!!!! ANYONE ELSE READY TO SEE SOMETHING BESIDES THOSE CRAZY YEARBOOK PICS?!!!! We’ve had our laughs over them… thank goodness for laughter, it is good for the soul.

Ecclesiastes 3:4 says There is a time for everything, a time to laugh and a time to cry…

For anyone reading this that doesn’t already know, Robert found out on October 3 that he no longer had a job. WOW.. we sure didn’t see that coming! A time to cry…

The Good News is.. it sometimes takes things like this to remind us of who really is in charge, and it’s NOT us! And THAT…is a REALLY GOOD THING!

We are truly clinging to “THE ONE IN CHARGE”… Our Faithful Heavenly Father.. Our Almighty & Awesome GOD. We appreciate your prayers as we seek Him with all of our hearts(Jeremiah 29:13). HE has THE BEST PLAN and we want to be right in the center of it..HIS plan.. NOT ours!

Consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

Lamanin? You’ve got to watch this video!

HE IS THE ONE who is holding us together in more ways than we even realize!
