Year 7-Day 142: Today, I am grateful for combined lessons. When it all comes together and combined lessons suddenly make the path or the answer clear... that is God's timing.
Students are finishing up another school year here. They do not even realize the subjects they think are so separate and defined will actually come together in usable knowledge as they progress through their education.
Our faith growing faith is like that, too. We suddenly see with clarity, scripture passages fitting and working together like a puzzle. Crazy, right.
This is quote resonated deeply with my soul. It is so brilliant.
"God's timing is perfect. Waiting is hard, but it's worth it. Breathe and let go fo the need to know how everything goes. God gets no glory from your need to control this. Give it to God & watch fresh winds blow." -Coach Livi @ AQueensWorth
How many scriptures come together in this quote? We would all come up with different passages. In recent weeks, these have been running through my mind and are stamped on my heart.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." -Proverbs 3:5-6
"And the Lord answered me: “Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it." -Habakkuk 2:2
"And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?[a] 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." -Matthew 6:27-29
We only have this day. Don't let worry weigh you down. Breathe and take in the goodness, sweetness and opportunities in this moment. One hour at a time, we can serve the Lord with gladness. "Give it to God and watch fresh winds blow."
Today, I am grateful for combined lessons.
