Biblical as well as modern-day examples demonstrate this general cycle: First, God provides for His people all by Himself. Then His people remember that they can depend on Him. Then they forget. Then God provides for His people all by Himself again so that His people are reminded to depend on Himâ ¦ and on and on. As of now, our Volunteer with GOD PROVIDES MINISTRY - South El Monte, CA:: GOD PROVIDES MINISTRY, a America's Second Harvest affiliate, is located in South El Monte, California. http://www.volunteermatch.org/results/org_detail.jsp?orgid=69903HOME | God provides:: Yet it ended with the assurance that God is in control. God will provide. I then though about the prophet Elijah. He fleed for what he thought for his life. http://service.thrivent.com/cpsblog/blog/Trust/HOME | western religion is helping us to stay perpetually within the forgetful stage of that cycle. We are sticking to the conviction that God doesnâ ™t know whatâ ™s best for us, so weâ ™d better make up for where we think Heâ ™s falling short.
But this flies in the face of Christs promise, which is that He will work out every secondary concern on our behalf if we make Him our First Concern. There is no surer way to have all the secondary things worked out than to trust Christ. He provides everything we need, from the little things, such as physical security all the way up to the bigger things such as Spirit-based living and freedom from sin.
In the Bible as well as in my personal experience there are never more than a few people who consistently remember God. Even amongst all the people who know in their heads that God is real, there is still only a few who persistently live according to the basic lessons He has taught them. Lessons Learned -- ORU alumnus knows that God provides:: In chapel, classes, and through experience, De Lascurain was taught to believe in God to provide for his needs. And that’s exactly what he is doing. http://alumniweb.oru.edu/orufront/lessonslearned.htmlHOME | God provides comfort - CNET Buzz Out Loud Lounge Forums:: God is not the cause of the sad things in our lives. He provides comfort to those who are suffering, and He ensures that good can come out of even the most http://forums.cnet.com/5208-6142_102-0.html?forumID=97&threadID=221969&messageID=2334182HOME |
How much will it cost us to follow Christ? Only the entirety of our lives, past and present. And to what end does Christ call us to sacrifice our everything? We trade in our empty selves for the chance to know Him. He will lead us toward unconditional joy in such ways that we as yet lack the capacity to imagine. By following Christ, we invest in eternal imperishables as opposed to everything else in this world, which God has appointed for complete destruction.
