Are You Sure God?

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you have looked up and asked God, “Are You Sure?”

If your answer was yes, guess what, you aren’t alone. I pray about everything, and I mean everything. I have an ongoing conversation with the Lord all day long. I have a specific prayer that I call “my billboard prayer,” I use when needing to make a decision that will highly impact my life. In short, I am hoping for the answered prayer to be as loud and big as a billboard.

So, what happens when you get the billboard, the light is green, and it’s a go! I guess it’s easy to think it’s from God, it’s going to be great but then it isn’t, wait, it wasn’t supposed to be like this. I asked, you gave the go ahead and now it feels all wrong. Did I miss something? Did I hear incorrectly? Maybe, Maybe Not!!! God knows!!!

To trust in him means precisely that, to trust. We need to remember that we only see the moment we are in; God sees our tomorrow and the many that will follow.

Coming up on twenty years, I was a new bride in a new city, a metropolis compared to the small country town where I grew up. I responded to a little black and white advertisement in the local newspaper for a customer service representative. I secured the position and grew within the company. Three years go by, and my husband was promoted within his company, and we were being transferred. The long and short of this is, God sent me to this company because thirteen years and three transfers later, I had a job. I had no way of knowing the day I applied for the CS Position that I would be blessed with not having to start over career-wise every time my husband was promoted and relocated. God knew!!!

In life, we will have many seasons, some warm and balmy, some torrid and rocky. I am sure of one thing though if God brings me to it, He will bring me through it, and I can only see the moment, and even though it might not make any sense now. God knows!!!

Jeremiah 29:11 NIV “For I know the plans I have for you’, says the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Romans 8:28 ESV “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”

I hope, as like me, the next time the season blows in a cold frigid storm that stops you in your tracks, distorts your vision, and causes you to look around and up in bewilderment, you will keep walking because you know! God knows!!!

Be Blessed today, Be a Blessing and thank you for joining me. 🥰
