I hope all is well with you and your family. For those with younger children, I can imagine how busy these last couple of weeks have been with “back to school shopping”. Having had those days myself, I do understand it all, but don’t have an envious bone in my body at the moment about you doing it 🙂
As part of your “back to school” preparation, please include a time of prayer and fasting for your children also. Whether they are at home or away at college they constantly need the divine protection of God. There is so much that they have to contend with, We need to pray that they make the right choices at all times and not fall to peer pressure.
Having said all this let me leave a couple verses with you from Proverbs 3:5-6- Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths.
What have you been trusting God for? Another child, a relationship, a better marriage, a job, your own home, completing school? Well don’t stop trusting God to bring it to manifestation. Trust requires submission- your will, emotions, feelings and intellect. These are the things that gets in the way when what you have asked God for is not coinciding with what it seems like God is actually doing. As these verses tell us acknowledge God in everything you do and allow Him to direct your path. We tend to acknowledge Him after we make our move, rather than before. It is like you seeing someone you know and they look at you, but do not acknowledge you. How do you feel? Well God does not want us to be saying we are walking with Him and then totally ignore Him in all our decision making. Acknowledge that He is there with you, and is working on your behalf behind the scenes.
Acknowledge that He knows what is the best path for you, acknowledge that He loves you, acknowledge His attributes, Acknowledge that He keeps His promises and that He is not a man that He should lie. It then makes it so much easier to act when we know these things.
Please remember to send any prayer request that you may have- nothing is too small or too large for God. You can email me at mpush810@gmail.com
In His Service,
