Jehovah Jireh
I just want to praise God for His goodness to me. He answered a BIG prayer request of mine over the weekend. Though, of course, nothing is too big or too hard for our great God. Praise God for His kindness! :) Without delving too deep in details, I must say He works wondrously, in ways I wouldn’t have guessed. I know that it was the Lord Who orchestrated the answer to my request. Yes, nothing happened by “chance,” but the way it happened also seems a bit out of the ordinary. And I believe God sometimes does things in ways that we least expect Him to. Or in a way that seems almost unlikely or maybe even almost “impossible.” Why? It is so that we will give Him all the glory. So that we can thank Him and not take any credit for our answered prayers. So that we are reminded that He is Jehovah Jireh–the Lord will provide. He alone receives all the glory because we know we can never say “Oh, I did this or that to help make it happen.” I truly feel that God is watching out over me. Yes, I’ve known this intellectually in my mind before. I had an intellectual assent that the Lord loves me and provides for me in every way. But through my experiences, the Lord continues to teach me and help me to not only think it, but also to experience His wondrous providence and love in my daily life. Thank You, Lord.

Praise the Lord.
Without exposing yourself. Is there any correlation between this one and the one posted in ‘May 17th’?
