Greetings sisters,
I hope you are well and striving on in the faith. We know we need to be on guard for dangers and keeping fighting the good fight of faith. We are not with our Lord yet. So may we keep vigilant and walk circumspectly.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.Matthew 24:13
I'm sharing this scripture to encourage us to focus on the Lord and His kingdom and righteousness and not on wondering how we will always find food or clothing etc.
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Matthew 6:25-34
We rely on Him to provide for our physical needs as of course He knows we need them!
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.Matthew 6:10-11
And we really don't need much as apostle Paul was talking about here...
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Philippians 4:11-13
We have so much hope in the Lord! May we press on strong in faith, doubting not. We need to keep our eyes on Him and not at the things around us. This account is always encouraging which we can learn lessons from for many situations.
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
Matthew 14:25-32
May the Lord help us, as we need that so much, but may we also seek to do those things that are right and pleasing to Him. And we hope in His mercy, and grace, and love and have so much hope in things ahead.
Keep holding fast wherever the Lord has called you, sisters. May we be strong in faith, trusting our heavenly Father. Love to you in His name.
