This morning I was worrying about a lot of things concerning my future.
Awhile ago the Lord revealed to me certain wondrous things about my future.
I wondered how it would ever come to pass and I started to worry about it today.

Worrying is the number one thing that brings grief to Gods heart.
When you worry you do not believe God can provide for you, this is insulting to Him especially if He has spoken to you.

The Israelites grieved Him in the desert by their unbelief and they could not enter Gods rest. The peace that surpasses all understanding comes to soothe your heart and mind when you surrender your anxieties and worries to God.
He is able to fulfill what He has promised.

God opened my heart this morning and reminded me of Abraham.
He had promised Abraham a son. Abraham had to look up to the starry night and God told Him that His descendants would be as countless as the stars.

It was impossible for Abraham and Sarah to have children but with God nothing is impossible. God wanted Abraham to turn his eyes up to the heavens, up to God .
He didn't want Abraham to look at his impossible situation here on earth, but He had to believe in the Almighty God who always keeps His promises to us.

I was taking a shower while God was revealing these things to me.
After showering, I love to rub lotion on my body. So as I was doing this, I looked out the bathroom window and gazed at the sky.
I felt my worries drifting away from me like the clouds in the sky.
God had restored my faith again!

He's never too busy to take the time to solve our problems, the little ones and the big ones.
We are so precious to Him! He is so precious to me!

Dear friend, do not worry about your future!
God will accomplish it all by Himself. Trust Him and enjoy your day!
He loves you and so do I!

Love always, Monique
