'Long Tables' Feeling Update
I won’t be going anywhere. After all the thinking and thinking, God just reminded me to be still and trust on His plans. Perhaps, I was too overwhelmed by the turn of events in my life that I wanted an escape. I wanted to go where there is greener pasture so I could pay our debts from Papa’s op and finance the case that we filed against the culprit. I was using the ‘I need career growth’ excuse but actually it was just me wanting more. I had too many worries and was looking for a solution.
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
But then again, God said not to worry. He got me and He is my solution. He is doing wonders and I am already starting to receive it. I am thankful for His unending love and I pray that He uses me more for His kingdom.
