Ruminate: : to go over in the mind repeatedly and often casually or slowly
Romans 11:33-36
Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and how inscrutable His ways!
“For who has known the mind of the Lord,
or who has been His counselor?”
“Or who has given a gift to Him
that He might be repaid?”
For from Him and through him and to Him are all things. To Him be glory forever. Amen. ( ESV)
I do not understand what God is doing...why can't I get a job...what is God up to?
Do not be anxious
Matthew 6:25-34
“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. ( ESV)
God you are in control of the universe.
You know what is going on here.
You will provide the job I need in Your perfect timing.
Romans 11:36
36 For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.(New Living Translation)
Dear Lord,
Make me a Mom of Power. The power of salvation that you are working in me. When I am weak, You are strong. Someday I will know why my life and lives of those closest to me seem "Topsy Turvy", filled with pain, uncertainty, anger, frustration...on that day I will say, "Wow!! God, I had no idea! This is amazing!"
You glory, my good. ~ Amen
Amen, hang in there sister. Sooner or later something good will happen.
