2 Kings 3
17 For thus says the LORD: ‘You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.’
18 And this is a simple matter in the sight of the LORD; He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
such a great miracle was a simple matter for God. all my worries and i, playing out 1000000 possible 'what if' scenarios in my head. its a simple thing, really. believe that He will protect me, exercise sound Biblical wisdom and judgment in the choices i make in my life, coupled with lots and lots of prayer. and trust that.. i am never, EVER, given anything more than i can take.
just like God heard the voice of Elisha in 2 Kings 6, just like He answered the persistent prayers of Abraham for sodom and gomorrah in Genesis 18.
the effective, fervent prayers of a righteous man (or woman haha) avail much.
my zomg-i-need-to-plan-my-life instincts take over all too strongly half the time. and sometimes they overwhelm me to the point that its all about me, and so much less about Him. so with regards to me, im just praying.. and praying.. and reading.. and reading.. and praying somemore. (:
this morning on the way to school, several people popped into my mind. and i felt this overwhelming sense of sadness because.. i've been praying for them for such a long time and half the time i feel like the evil one is just winning battles one by one, and i cant do anything about it. but at the end of it, i just need to believe. believe again that my God is Mighty to Save, and that one day.. perhaps one day. i pray, one day.
but for now its enough to know He hears, and that the walls that are built around their hearts are being chipped away, little by little.
but for now im so super duper ultra tired. night (:
