A reminder for
today
I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye
ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he
said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. (Acts 20:35)
I am a little late today writing to you, my friend. We are
done with our release so today we are cutting code and I have a day off. So, I
decided to sleep in instead of going to the gym early and then rather going a
little later. I had a tough workout this morning and I must admit I am a little
exhausted from this weeks training. I am five weeks away from competing, so my
carbs are low and my energy also.
Last night I stopped at the garage to buy bread and a man
approached me in need of gasoline money. At first, I thought he might be another
scammer, but the Lord changed my heart and reminded me of these words: It is
more blessed to give than to receive. So, I told him to pull into the gas station lines and I gave the attendant
money to putt petrol into his car.
Paul tells us in Galatians 6: As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of
the household of faith. He also says in verse 7: Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that
shall he also reap.
Therefore, in the midst of uncertainty in our country and
with terrible finances I gave him most of my money I had. I know that God is at
work and that He will change our circumstances and we will see His glory in the
next few months. I know our situation will change, because I worship an awesome
God. I will trust Him and follow Him and worship Him alone.
Lord, thank you for all that you do for us and the amazing blessing
we so gracefully receive from your loving hand. Please bless us and bless our
challenges so that we will show your glory. In Jesus name.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
