as he thinks so is he

Just back from the beach....

beautiful today, 

but still cold weather.

What happened to those spring-like February days we've had before?

Thinking about God tonight.

Thinking how He always knows what I need.

Realizing that He is very intimately involved in every aspect of my life.

He knows how many hairs are on my head.

He knows when I sit down and when I rise up.

He knows my words before I say them,

He knows my thoughts,

He knows my fears.

And miraculously,

He loves me anyway.

I know that my thoughts are not always pleasing to God,

and I'm working on that.

In fact, this time, I am REALLY working on my thoughts.

"For as a man thinks in his heart, so is he."

Proverbs 23:7

 I read the Bible and other books

explaining different aspects of the Christian life.

Some days I read a lot,

some days I don't read as much,

 and some days I don't read at all.

The amount I read is varying most of the time.

What always amazes me is.......

when I am in great need of knowing and learning a truth

illuminating my particular plight,

that truth is somewhere in my reading for that day.

How does God orchestrate that?

How does He keep my reading schedule ordered in such a way

that at my very moment of need...

He has the answer for me?

How?

He is God and He is able

to do more than I can even begin to comprehend.

Tonight I am thankful

that God is tracking right along with me

and knows

"everything I need for life and godliness"

in this barren world.
