Proverbs 3:5-6
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
This happen to be one of the favourite verse of one of a brother who was called home recently. It was no coincident this verse was also the opening verse of the guest Speaker,Pastor David Goh at our Church last sunday.
For the past couple of months I have been counting the days towards oct when I will retired. It will means no income. who will put the food on the table? It's one thing to encourage people when they are in a situation,but when it involved us personally, it's something else.I will be lying if I say I am not worry. In fact I worried too much, when I know I shouldnt. yes, I have spoken to some pastors ,cell members who prayed with me on this issue and I have even remind myself there is nothing to worry about and even know and read the scriptures how God takes care of the sparrows.
Matthew 10: 29-31
29Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. 30And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
After hearing last sunday's message I guess I better learn to trust completly(no matter how hard it is). I dont remember most of the verses, but only the opening and the closing verses. The last verse was from Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus
I dont know what is going happen in Oct, but I am not going worry myself sick thinking about it,because I know God is in control. Once I commit everything to Him, it is His problem not mine .
now this song will have more meaning than ever!
I don't know
About tomorrow
I just live from day to day
And I don't borrow from its sunshine
For its skies may turn to gray
And I don't worry about my future
For I know what Jesus said
And today He walks beside me
For He knows what lies ahead
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to under-understand
But I, I know, I know, I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds, who holds my hand
Oh yeah, yeah, yes, hey, yes
Who holds my hand
Shalom
