Why do we find it so hard to wait? If we believe in and trust the words in this scripture we already know we will be provided for. God is in all our details.
He knows every need we have. He is cognizant of all our obligations. We must seek Him first in all things so that we may be fortified in our trust of His provision.
Waiting on God is our opportunity to trust. To show that we do trust Him and His will. When we get preoccupied with getting we miss out on seeing Him working in our lives.
We do not have to fret over our own provision. He wants us focused on Him and serving others. In this way we are able to let His will flow through us. Allowing us to move through life without worry and fear as the rest of the world does.
“If God gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers—most of which are never even seen—don’t you think he’ll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you? What I’m trying to do here is to get you to relax, to not be so preoccupied with getting, so you can respond to God’s giving. People who don’t know God and the way he works fuss over these things, but you know both God and how he works. Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don’t worry about missing out. You’ll find all your everyday human concerns will be met.
Matthew 6:30-33 MSG
Considerations for your planner:
- Do you find it hard to wait? Are you seeking God first and in all things? Write down ways you can set your priorities on Him first.
A Prayer for Our Community:
God, We are in awe of You. Thank You for thinking of everything. We do not have to fret over the small or big details of our life. We simply need to seek You. Help us to make this a priority in our lives. Help us to make this the first priority. We love You. We need You. Amen.
