This sweet lady shared with me at church this past weekend how heart broken she was when she found out that she had to let go of her beautiful home she owned for over 10yrs due to her husband’s recent job lost. They did everything they could to keep their home but in the end they lost it and had to move out. God opened a door for them to move 3 houses down in that same neighborhood temporarily with family so the children could finish the school year. She explained how it was a struggle for her to accept the lost, to let go and find peace within with losing her home and now living with family. The though of driving by the house everyday was heart wrenching but in the end they moved out to only to find out exactly 2 days after they moved out, the house was caught on fire by lighting around 1:30 in the morning. Most likely, everyone would have been home sleeping and who knows where they would have been right now if they didn’t move out In time. She cried out to God about that house. She was angry at God for moving out and now she is so thankful to God for saving her life and her family’s life! I know it’s hard to understand God’s way, how God operates but He is SOVEREIGN, He is Faithful, yes, He is in control and He has our best interest at heart but more importantly He loves us! I could go on and on to tell you about what I shared with her of my own lost…,the point is sometimes what we see as a lost isn’t always a lost in the eyes of God. See ” My thoughts are not your thoughts and My ways are not our ways” Said The Lord in Isaiah 55:8
He is simply trying to protect us and see how far would we trust Him. She has a new/ stronger faith in God and a new walk with God now. She is expecting GREATER and it’s coming! Learning to trust God isn’t easy but We just need to trust Him.
Can you trust HIM?“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
