If Tomorrow

If tomorrow you were told to quit your job and serve God faithfully would you?  Would you have enough faith to live by His grace and sufficiency alone?  If you can't trust God to supply your daily needs then what can you trust Him for?  Surely if He is good enough, strong enough, merciful enough and loving enough to keep our souls from Hell, HE can surely supply food, shelter, and basic needs of life.

Obedience is key in a happy, successful Christian life.  Using your 'common sense' will get you into a whole lot of trouble. Our Lord is not common nor does He work in common ways all the time. If you let your own sense of what is good for your life propel your decisions then you have taken your life into your own hands.  You have fully told the Lord that you don't need Him except for when you deem necessary.  Our actions speak volumes and our hearts proclaim our true intentions.


Word of the Day
Common - of frequent occurrence; usual; familiar 


No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.  Judge not, that ye be not judged. 
Matthew 6:24 - 7:1


When God leads you to the edge of  the cliff
Trust Him fully.
Only one of two things will happen;
Either He will catch you when you fall or He will teach you how to fly.
