Isaiah 43:18-19 NLT “But forget about that-it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland so my chosen people can be refreshed.”
I find it quite funny when we as humans cry out to the Lord in our distress, despair, and frustrations. We ask, beg and often plead for a change in our circumstances. A change.
Then one day we wake up and our position at work has been eliminated. A new position has just opened up in the department of our expertise. The home we are renting and have outgrown has suddenly been put on the market. Your roommate has been transferred. You have been transferred.
The possibilities and scenarios are as vast as the stars in the night sky but the results are the same…Change!!!
Oh No!!! Fear!!! Panic!!! What is going on, why is this happening? God, where are you?
Where? Right in the middle of your answered prayers, that’s where!
We can’t expect changes in our lives and world if there aren’t some changes. I have been around long enough to know often the changes we are praying for need to come from within but just as often the Lord will pick us up and move us. There Done! A new beginning, a new chapter!
Jeremiah 29:11 NIV “For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
So, if you truly are praying for changes, waiting for the Lord earnestly for your changes and one day a strange wind blows in and moves things…pay attention! It’s probably God, do you not see it?
Be blessed today and thank you for joining me. 🥰
