1 Peter 5:1-7
At this time where I am stepping out in faith & trusting that God will provide, I continue to find verses in my daily devotionals that seem directed specifically at me. Yesterday, all of them were about being tested and staying strong. Yesterday, it was confirmed that I lost my job.
The beauty of it is that I am not freaking out. Any time fear or worry about what I will do creeps in, I lift it up in prayer. God will show me the way. And he has plans for me, "He'll promote [me] at the right time." 1 Peter 5:7 (MSG)
I've always felt called to some type of ministry, but never felt I was in the right place or frame of mind to minister to others. All of my mental instability, fears & thoughts about myself held me back. Now that God has brought me more than ever into communion with him, I will be able to carry his message.
So if I listen to all of today's reading, I understand that I am to be a tender shepherd & trust that God will put me where I need to be at the right time.
Amen! :D
