Racing to the computer with excitement to tell the God story of the recent!
Let me explain:
My son had a big home improvement going on and he had concern of the finances for it. He had the money but would be draining his bank. Anxiously he kept saying, I don't know what to do, we have to finish this project. How will we replace the money? His wife and I kept saying, "You have to have faith, where is your faith?" We have a dog name Faith, we are not talking about the dog! lol!
We prayed! The very next day, I kid you not, I was sitting in Costco and a elderly lady was being chatty and she says, I grew my family in Osh Kosh, WI, You know the big air show that goes on in July, she explains that it is a long standing tradition over 35+ years. She would take her family and vacate the house for the week so the pilots could stay at her house. She continues, "At the end of the week there on the kitchen table would be a $6000.00 check! You know what it would pay for? My taxes! Can you believe?" Believe!? I asked her if she was a Christian, to which she answered, "Yes!" God provides!
Where does finances come from? The Lord provides! You never know! I could not wait to get out of there to call my son. When he calls me finally back a day later I am in a Uber and I tell him this is a faith story for him. I encourage him to remember "You never know, where the money will come from but we need to just remain FAITH FILLED!" I got off the phone and the Uber driver heard the whole story and commented with FAITH, "Yes God provides!" He too is a believer! He drives me to my destination the whole way we are talking about the faithfulness of God.
God truly does work in mysterious ways! I can't wait the write a story of how he will help my son!
For through the Spirit, by faith, we ourselves eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness. Galatians 5;5
It is with all nine fruits of the Spirit we can "wait", love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness, goodness, self-control. Galatians 5:22.
Let us pray:
Lord I hear you sing, wait upon me. I will wait upon you Lord for each moment that I am awake. Amen.
