Here we go again, the kids are all off to school and summer vacation is over, if you are anything like me, it is a time to regain some since of normalcy to my days. But at the same time it seems also to get really hectic. I never realized that starting back to school was so expense. (Mom and Dad thank you).It seems like every time our boys come home from school we being asked to pay another fee or for another donation of some kind. I often find myself wondering where is the money going to come from. But God (two of my favorite words) provides every time a need arises.
I guess I just have to take God at His word and trust Him. Because He has told us what to do.
Matthew 6:33-34 "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you. Therefore don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
I don't understand some times why I struggle so much with this, because He has never failed to do what He has told me He will do. His Word has told me that when we trust God with all our lives, He as promised that He will provide. Why then is it so hard for me to trust? Pride? Because I think I am self sufficient and the "i can do it" takes over. When will I ever learn this lesson, I don't know, but I do know this He will be patient with me until I do.
So I guess I just have to trust Jesus and do what He says do and He will provide.

Oh dear brother, in our Bible study last night this very subject came up with worry and how each of us in our family knows first hand that God is our Provider but we still have this issue. Just as the lady with the issue of blood for 12 years we have our issues with worry, but just as the lady also did we must touch the hem of His garment. For me I want to grab on and hang on for the ride of my life and solely trust Him in all things.
