Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring

I haven't written an entry for a while now. I think I get caught up on facebook and forget about this site. But today something happen and I really didn't want to share it on facebook,so I decided to come here instead.

Tuesday night I was discussing with a group of ladies that it's been a while since I had a siezure since I started some new medicine. I said this with an attitude of being thankful for the right medicine. Thinking I will now have no problems now because everything is solved. I felt good.

This morning as I was praying,I thanked the Lord for this day, I thanked him for his strength in my weakness, I told him I trusted his plans for my life. That he will give me whatever I need to overcome whatever circumstances I'm in.

I totally believe in his providence and sovereignty in all things.

Well guess what happen to me this afternoon, I had a seizure :/ And I thought, Why? It felt as if God was saying... Now do you really Trust me. What's weird is that I was reading John this morning (before the seizure) and I was reading about Jesus feeding the 5000. He asked Phillip where he could by bread so that the people could eat. And the scriptures say in John 6:6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.

God knew my prayers even before I spoke it ,And I believe it was part of his plan for me to have my seizure later on that same day. It all goes together I believe, for my good, to make me more like him, to bring Glory to Christ. I have prayed a "whatever it takes Lord" prayer with my whole heart,and meant it. And even though my shoulder hurts,my tongue hurts,and my body aches. I still mean it. Whatever it takes Lord. There is a scripture that sums up total Trust. It's in Job, and it's one of my favorites.

Job 13:14 Though he slay me, I will hope in him;

That scripture will sum up my final thoughts and feelings here now, and I'll end this blog. I'm glad I have came back. I have a lot of catching up to do.

  1. I love that verse from Job, even when I want to pass on the "slaying" part, where else can I go? Who else can I trust but Him?
