If God Be For Us...
Last
night, I was thinking about a particular work that I felt God was
leading me to do - a work that won't be easy or favored by many -- I was
preparing for bed while I was thinking on what He has been calling me
to do lately. I walked across my bedroom and opened my closet; I was in
search of a shirt for work the next day, all the while thinking of what
He had been whispering to me all evening.
My hand separated the shirts
hanging in the closet in a completely unplanned location that I had to smile
knowing God had heard my thoughts and was telling me that I need not
fear man, FOR I had parted the clothing in such a way that the shirt in
front of me - in bold letters - read IF GOD BE FOR US. What a gentle
reminder that when we step out IN CHRIST, we need not fear man.
Moments later, I was reading the Bible before going to sleep. While
reading it, I remember thinking, "I wish I could recall where that verse
is in the Bible." But I couldn't recall.
This evening- thoughts
of what happened last night were far from my mind, but NOT from HIS
mind. While sitting on the couch just moments ago, I picked up the
Bible and opened it - my eyes went straight to the following verse: "If
God be for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8: 31 KJV)
God never ceases to amaze me.
