I have been distracted by some things in my life lately, taking my eyes off of God and placing them on my problems. In other words, I drew away from God. However, God, in His mercy, gave me a gentle nudge to remind me of what He has done in the past.
Years ago, I had a great paying job with wonderful benefits, incentives, profit sharing and pay, etc. I worked for this company for 18 years. My job was eliminated, in fact, the company closed the facility where I worked. I was not devastated by this loss because the Lord had prepared me a year in advance. He had revealed it to me because I drew close to Him. Although I no longer had that job, God provided for me and my son. He had a plan in place for that loss.
Somethimes I forget to draw near to God. Life throws us a monkey wrench sometimes and we lose sight of Him, eventually keeping our eyes on our problems. He has reminded me that if I draw near to Him, I can trust that He has a plan in place for all that concerns me. He will reveal the plan to me as I draw near. I love you Lord for loving me.
