As I had begun to journal yesterday morning I was telling Jesus about some items for which I had great concern. I was trying not to be anxious about them, but in reality, I was. There were two specific ones which were the drivers of concern. I ended the journaling surrendering them to Jesus and trying not to carry them. I had even written that I know He loves us all, but somehow in these two areas I wasn’t sure if He cared about them–maybe I was just being selfish.
My oldest grandson is here to celebrate his mom’s birthday with her and our family. A friend of our family stopped by mid-afternoon to see him and while she was here she told me what she was doing later in the day. I could hardly believe it–what she was doing was taking care of the first concern I had journaled about. She knew nothing of my concern, but God had put it on her heart and she was taking care of it.
Later in the day yesterday my oldest grandson who is in the Air Force was sharing with me what God had placed on his heart to do. Wouldn’t you know that what he was going to do now took care of concern #2. As I began my journaling this morning I told Jesus how sorry I was for having doubt instead of trust with these two areas. Both were connected to our family and I thought maybe I was being selfish in my wishfulness.
OH, HOW I LOVE JESUS!
