I just sent a text to my Mom: As you know I am trusting Jesus with all. Especially in respect to my "source".
You see, I've been praying and listening to Louise Hay on Prosperity and how it is our God given right. That just as He provides enough breath for each day we shall live; all other needs are met by Him as well. (Matthew 6:25-34)
Do Not Worry
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
I had been worrying about money. Why? Because I kept repeating the words from the email over and over in my mind. You see, on July 16th I recieved an email from my client stating that "we are almost out of money ... essentally 2-3 remaining... or we will have to do some severe cuts... including marketing which would impact you".
Usually he paid me on time, on or by the 20th of each month. However, today is the 21st and I did not recieve payment. I began to wonder if that email was his way of letting me know it's over NOW.
I'm also recalling the distance I felt the last time we worked together in California and how when we hugged, it felt like GOODBYE.
I know it's only been a day but something in my spirit tells me otherwise, and I am pretty "in tune", so I began to worry. I'm trying very hard to reprogram my mind, orr as the scriptures state, renew my mind. Choosing to stand on the Truth of God's word. KNOWING He's my source. That He can and will take care of my needs. I just need to trust in Him.
Divine appointment...
So I am on my way out of Publix (grocery store) with my cart full of groceries when Todd, one of the employees, comes along side me and begins asking me about my day. Telling me how much he loves rivers and that his favorite is the Illinois River. He proceeds to tell me it is located in Grafton Illinois. I told him I used to live in Illinois. Never been there before. I was wondering where this was going. He then quotes a scripture, one I had heard many times before, "And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or HUSBANDS (pauses, and in that moment, looks dead into my eyes) for my sake WILL receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life." I asked him which scripture it was. He told me it was in the book of Matthew.
I was completely covered in chills and it's 100 degrees here in Florida. I ask him, "Why did you share that with me? His reply, "I just felt like telling you that ALL your needs WILL be met. You are now married to Jesus."
I hugged him and shared with him the truth regarding my current situation. How I had been listening to Louise Hay's -Recieving Prosperity, about the email saying that my income was coming to an end, and how crazy it was that he said I was married to Jesus now - not even knowing that I was in the middle of a divorce!!
I KNEW it was God who was speaking through Todd.
He then proceeded to tell me that he was a born again Christian, filled with the Holy Ghost and that we just had a "divine" appoint appointment and goes back to talking about the river and encourages me to look it up.
So I did. See map below.
I was amazed at just what transpired!!!
God just sent this earth angel to confirm that indeed I am BLESSED! and will continue to be beyond measure just as the Mississipi dumps into the ocean. It will be unending!
