We need never worry about anything. God has every detail of our life in His hands. His loving eye is on every moment. It is He who gives us our every breath. He knows what we need and He knows when we need it and He is more than happy to provide for us.
Still, I am ever amazed at God's gentleness and generosity. Yesterday when I looked at our bank account, it told me that I would not be able to put gas in the van nor would I be able to buy milk for breakfast. There was enough gas to drive to mass (1.5 miles), and then to the station on Friday morning (pay day) to fill up, that was it. Milk could wait. No worries, all was well.
I loaded up the kids and went to mass. When I returned to the van after mass, I found a twenty dollar bill that had been scrunched into my door handle. I felt like a little girl in the loving embrace of her Father, and indeed I was. My heavenly daddy is always taking care of me, and here He was at it again. He often uses other people to bring blessings to us, and I thank God for the person who so lovingly placed that sacrifice of generosity in my door. May God return the blessings to you a thousand times over.
God's generosity never ends. Not long after receiving this blessing I heard my doorbell ring. It was a friend from church who had come to deliver a gift card for the local grocery store. Someone had anonymously given it to her to give to us. Milk was again on the menu.
My daddy was embracing me again. I am so in love with Him, I am so confident in Him and I trust Him with every molecule of my being. He loves me more than anyone on this earth will ever love me. That's who He is! A loving Father who desires to tenderly take care of His children.
I pray that every person on the face of the planet would realize that God is the Father of all of His children. He is intensely in love with each and every one of us. We are made in His image, and He wants us to be with Him so much, that He died on a cruel an inhumane cross so that He could open the door to bring even the ones who crucified Him to be in heaven with Him.
The only thing that keeps us from heaven, is our refusal of God's love, His mercy and His grace. He is always calling out to us. It is up to us to answer.
May God's peace fill you today. May you know His loving embrace. May you come to understand the depth of love that God has for you and for each and every one of His children.
Have a blessed day! I will be praying for you!
