"Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all he has done." phil. 4:6
I came across this verse this morning and it couldn't be more meaningful in my life than right now. Lately money has REALLY been short around the Lockaby household. So short in fact that we really weren't sure how we were going to pay our house taxes that were due in Jan. I called the treasurer today after having a long conversation with God about not worrying anymore. God pretty much told me that if I needed something to ask for it, and pray hard about everything, so I did.....I told God that I needed money.......then He answered. This is awesome! I called the treasurer to get a balance of what we owe on our taxes.....and the lady said, "Sir, your house taxes have already been paid by your mortgage company"........I had forgotten about our escrow account. I just about screamed in the middle of my office! All I could say was "are you serious???" The lady reassured me over and over and over again . Isn't God GOOD!!!
Now I'm a pretty tough guy, but this almost brought me to tears. It's been a while since I've heard from God, partly bc I just haven't been talking enough to Him. There is nothing in the world like hearing from our heavenly Father!
So, if you're reading this blog and you need something from God....ask Him, HE WANTS YOU TO! Just don't forget about thanking Him for everything He has already done.
On the flip side, if you're reading this blog and you don't even know who Jesus is, don't you see what you're missing? Don't you want that???
