Even The Sparrows Know
By: Kenya Gossett
We all have a need. We all have moments of anxiety over what will happen tomorrow.
This life will always have burdens (and thank you Jesus that this is just a temporary home) but God's Word still promises provision and a way out. He has a solution for EVERY problem we face.
Yet it can be easy to wake up and worry.
I'm guilty of this. I'm currently in a really tough place where I need my Heavenly Daddy to come to the rescue asap.
My faith is big and child like. I just know that He'll come through for me. He will make what is currently impossible, to possible.
But my flesh can be weak and doubting at times. Sometimes I do get frustrated. Yet I realize that if I took matters into my own hands, it would be a big fat mess and if I knew the future, I wouldn't know how to lean so heavily upon the Lord.
We aren't meant to have it all figured out. That job belongs to God and there's beauty in it. His ways are sealed with perfection. There's no mistakes in His time table.
It's always right on time. It will never be late.
His love and caring heart will not diminish.
He will never turn a blind eye to our pain.
God is more than aware of our financial need, or the miracle we're needing in our personal life, family life, work life, etc. He knows it before we even come to Him with our burdens and He is already working on our behalf. Even now, He is moving behind the scenes. It's already taken care of.
Today The Lord reminded of Matthew 6:25-27
"Therefore I tell you, stop being worried or anxious, (perpetually uneasy, distracted) about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink. Nor about your body, as to what you will wear. Is life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, they neither sow seed nor reap the harvest, nor gather the crops into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they? And who of you by worrying can add one hour to the length of his life?"
Wow. "Are you not worth much more than they?". Absolutely. If He can have a heart towards His creation and sweet birds, and provide their every need, what makes you think that He will withhold from His daughters who love Him?! We are His blood. His delight. We are so loved.
We have to know that Jesus is our daddy. He will take us out of a critical place, and supply every need emotionally, materially, and spiritually. (Philippians 4:19)
Listen, worrying will never change the circumstance. It will only take away precious time from your life. But your thankfulness and expectancy will shift everything.
Just like nature, trust Him with your tomorrow. Thank Him for what you DO have and for what you are waiting to receive.
Develop a deep knowledge of who our God is and what He is capable of doing for us when we are faithful.
I am praying for whoever is reading this, that the Holy Spirit will come right now and fill your heart with Heavenly peace and that every worry will lift from your mind. In Jesus name!
Beloved, if He can hold the world, He can hold the season you're in. Not a field or a flower escapes His notice. Even the sparrow knows, He holds tomorrow.
