In recent months I have learned alot of things. The biggest thing I have learned is to put my trust in God because He is the only one really in control. I see prayers answered in my family that have amazed me and made me look around at the world in a whole different way. I also ask God to meet me half way sometimes when things aren't working out so well.
You know what kind of things I'm talking about. We have all made plans or wanted to do something and no matter what we did the day was gone and nothing was accomplished. Well yesterday was one of those days. I borrowed a tiller from a really good friend. Bless her heart she hadn't used it in forever so she had no way of knowing that the fuel lines had dry rotted and needed replacing. I carried it and had it fixed in no time. Got back home and tried to crank it and guess what? The primer bubble was also in bad shape. I sat down looked at the area I planned for my garden and just laughed. Then I started to pray. I looked up and asked God why all the obstacles? All I was trying to do was grow the plants He placed on this earth to nourish our bodies and I made sure to read my Bible to nourish my soul. I sang praises to him in church couldn't He at least meet me half way so I could get these things done? Amen. Kelcy had been listening and she said, "you know God only has three answers." I asked what they were. She said, "yes, not now, or I have something better in mind." So always remember we are on God's time He is not on ours and there is a reason for everything.
I'm going to try to do everything again today. We'll see what happens. Either way I'll probably have my feet knocked out from under me. Either by the tiller jerking me around or God doing what he does best which is leading me in the direction He wants me to go whether that is where I was headed or not. Thank you God. I'm glad to have you in my heart and on my side.
