MY GOD AINT NEVER FAILED ME YET!
God has showed me how much He loves me time and time again. Before I even had a right relationship with Him, when I was living in my filth and blissfully ignorant of love, He gave His Son for me. Since I've been saved, God has showed me time and time again, that He will always be there for me.
When I spent all of my savings (and then some) getting married and then moving my family to another city only to find out my pre-approved job transfer was going to be no more, God showed me that He'll always be my provider. The first two months in Indianapolis, while I was looking for employment, all of our bills stayed paid on time, we never missed a meal or snack, and we didn't have to borrow. God was and is my Jehovah Jireh. I have to note that, even after my wife and I found work, every job that I've worked since moving to Indianapolis has paid less than the one before, but since we've moved to Indy we have more. We've have newer vehicles and have been able to pay the notes, we live in a bigger place, been able to take family vacations, I got my BS and my wife is getting her Master's, our family has remained healthy, we've had an addition to the family (Cruz), and will be having another next month, all this plus being able to do music ministry in and out of the state. I said all of this not to brag, but quite the contrary. I've listed these blessings as a witness, to keep myself humble and remind me that God has blessed and kept me and house with a covenant through this process called life. I had to remind myself because, I took the last year off work to raise my son, but now that I'm ready to go back into the workforce, I see people losing their jobs and the economy in the crapper. I have to remind myself that God is the Deuteronomy 7:9 God that, "is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands." I have to remember Proverbs 29:25, "Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe". I have to remember Romans 8:18, "that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us". While all these scriptures provide me with a sense of peace, it all goes back to what I know for myself about my life and my relationship with God, and that is MY GOD AINT NEVER FAILED ME YET!!! |
