Believing that Christ is my provision

9/17/2011

 
Lately we have had some challenges with finances. Occasionally there seems to be an ebb in the "receivables" and it is an opportunity for me to give into the temptation of worrying about provision. It doesn't matter that God gave us a huge blessing in a vehicle last month, I still seem to be prone to worrying about financial provision when things seem to go a little South.

But this is the opportunity I need to declare that I am loved by God, my good ABBA and that He is my provision. My brain seems to easily go to fear and worry when there is apparent lack. I say apparent lack because I am called to live by faith in what I cannot see and yet choose to believe is true. It is a significant challenge to live from my spirit and see with the eyes of my spirit when my soul wants to fret and has all sorts of distress one can live from. I've become accustomed to saying to my soul, "Be still my soul and know that ABBA is your provider!"

Sooner or later my soul gets the idea and settles down, and what a wonderful thing that is!
