A Hope and a Future

Have you ever been at a place in your life, where you know God is moving you on to something different? Maybe something better? You don't know how he is going to get you there, or what he is doing. But without a doubt you know that whatever it is and however you do get there, it is from God.

That is where I have been for the past 3 or so years. Up until now, it has felt like I have been in limbo. I sort of knew what was coming to a degree. How I was going to get there was another story. And God has only been allowing me get little glimpses of it, even though until recently, I did not even know that is what they were.

In the past 4 or 5 weeks, it has become clear that at last he was moving us on. The hows are being taken care of. And the outlook ahead is really a good thing. Still there is some things that have yet to be resolved and will not be yet.

Even this is not my first rodeo in that there have been other times that God has done something miraculous in my life, this is something different that he is doing for us. And Friends, I have to say, it is no less scary then some of those other times that God has moved on our behalf.

I am not ready to say what he is doing. That will come in a short time. But it is what all this blog has been about these last few weeks. Being late in posting, and sometimes not at all. And things will not get back to more normal, until later this year.

For now, I just want you to know, I will continue to keep up the best I can. And if I cannot post a regular devotion etc., I will post something each day as God is willing and when I can. So please don't give up on me.

This week that is coming up and probably the one after, will be busier then ever. And so my plans for now are to at least post a scripture each day. And as soon as I am ready, I will let you know what has been going on.

In thinking ahead to how things are going to change, it is a little scary for me. After all, I am close to being 70 years old and not in the best of health. Thank the Lord, I have my husband, and other family members to help me get through.

And even more so, I have God. It is because of him, that we are where we are at this point in our lives.

It reminds me of the scripture in Jeremiah. (29:11-12)  I know thoughts the I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil. To give you and expected end. Then shall you call upon me and you shall go and pray to me and I will hearken to you. (KJV)

The NIV says it this way: I know the plans I have for you,,,plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future....

What a better promise for June 23, 2019. As I look ahead to what God has for me, there is no need to think of it as scary. He has me right where he wants me. In the palm of his hand. It is already all planned out. Not to how I expect, but how he does.

Til next time, God bless!
