My God will come through, always.
This passage in the picture has been on my mind all night. This woman literally gave all she had to survive, and she gave it away. For me, that would have been extremely difficult especially if it was all I had to get me through to the next day. What made her able to do that though, was through faith. She had faith that God would provide for her. In difficult times, we start to wonder how we're going to just make it to tomorrow. In those times, look to the one who created you and knitted you in the womb. If you're like me and you're a worry wart, I got the perfect scripture for you. He tells us in Matthew 6:34,"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." I have this taped on my bed, because I need the constant reminder that God will take care of everything that I feel is something to worry about. Tonight at church I felt God remind me how blessed I am, and I heard him tell me things that I need to change. The offering came around him and this passage in the picture popped up in my head. I put all of the cash on me I had in the offering. I was thinking to myself, "but God what if I need it?" Then I thought of this woman who gave everything. I often forget to realize the "stories" in the Bible aren't just stories. They're real events that happened. She had faith that God would provide. And I know that He did. The pastor said something that I will never forget as I was having second thoughts,"if it's hard to give when you have little, it's going to be even harder to give when you have a lot." I know that some struggle, but whatever you feel like God tells you to, don't second guess it. He will always provide when He has asked you to do something. He won't leave you hanging.
