And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3:18

Faithful

I just need to praise God!

He continues to remind me every single day of His undying faithfulness to me and that He has been in every step along the way.  This week has just been full of reminder after reminder of how much He loves me and that He has plans for me far beyond what I could ever imagine.

I had the opportunity to help someone I don't even know out financially last week, and in doing so, took a rather dramatic leap of faith that God would provide.  The next day, I was offered a job for next year that will more than cover my expenses.  The next week I was given a scholarship that I didn't even know existed.  God is providing in AMAZING ways!!! AND, two of my best friends are now fully funded for their missions trips this summer.  My roommate had someone walk up to her and offer to pay for the entire trip!  Who can say that these two people have not been called by God to these countries when He has SO dramatically provided????? If you haven't read Isaiah 41:9-10 recently, you should get on that.

Even more dramatic: my God is a God of reconciliation and restoration.  If you read my last post, you know that a dear friend has been on my mind a lot recently, and that my heart has been broken about the rift between us.  Today, I talked to that friend for the first time since September and had the opportunity to ask forgiveness.  I've been praying for reconciliation with that person for the last 7 months, and God orchestrated it in ways that I never could have.  I love Him for His goodness to me and for the way He speaks to my heart and I need everyone to know that.


Praise the Lord, all you nations; extol Him, all you peoples.  For great is His love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.  Praise the Lord.  Psalm 117:1-2
