Head-Lines

Things certainly did not go according my what I had envisioned for the latter half of 2010.

• Lost my job
• Lost my benefits
• Was diagnosed with Sjogren's Syndrome and Diabetes
• Almost lost my hubby to a serious illness
• Had a falling out with one of my children that caused an estrangement
• Found a large sum of money missing from bank account
• Hubby's overtime dwindled down to nothing
• Roof started leaking
• Finances became very tight

I have found myself feeling increasing more insecure each day, with bouts of depression visiting me more frequently than I would like.  I was looking through some old photos and saw the frog planter that one of my kids made when they were little and I suddenly realized that I am looking for my security in "earthly" things instead of looking to the Heavens.  Why would I come to that realization from looking at a frog shaped planter, you ask?

Fully

Rely

On

God

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.

Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with

you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9

We can "Fully Rely On God" to keep His promises.

In Joshua 23:14 we read, "You know with all your heart and soul that

not one of all the good promises the Lord your God gave you has failed.

Every promise has been fulfilled; not one has failed."

Scripture assures us He will never leave us or forsake us.

He is our refuge and strength.

Before we call He will answer, and we will soar on wings like eagles.

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

God has my future in HIS hands...
