Looking Beyond My Now
Read
Hebrews 11:1
“Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.”
Today's Encouragement
If you had told me 8 years ago that I would be going through a divorce and raising 3 kids on my own I would have never believed you. I had no idea at the time how I was going to make it through, but I believed that if God brought me to it, then he would bring me through it.
Had I kept my eyes on my circumstances, I would have never made it through. I saw something beyond my present circumstances and continued to press forward. As hard as it was then and sometimes now, I can look back on the other side of the story. God always leaves more than he takes away.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I am grateful for your unconditional love towards me. I thank you for always providing, and for always making away when it seemed as if there was no way. Thank you for restoring the years in my life. In Jesus's Name Amen!
