God Always Has A Perfect Plan

This is what has entered my life recently.  I wasn't really excited about the prospect of being involved in this process.  But with no other choice I prepared for the day to be present.  One of my gifts is not directions. I can get lost very easily, turned around and confused.  Leon knows this about me.  One of the many things that he does for me is give me maps, drives the route with me, plugs it into the GPS and always gives me verbal directions.  He did the same for me this time.  I never take this for granted from him.  He is very patient and understanding with me.  So here is the map he made me to find out where I was supposed to go once in the court house.  (I had to retrieve it from the trash.  It has applesauce on it.)

I could not understand why God allowed this in my life at this particular time.  I questioned him.  I prayed about being able to be exempt for family reasons but he still in his plan saw fit to allow me to be a part of this process.

Today as I left out to fulfill my responsibility I read this paper.  These are the things that Preacher Dale said a few weeks ago at the end of his message. I knew in my heart that if God allowed this he meant for me to minister or be a blessing to someone.  I did meet a woman.  We had so much in common it was God.  She worked with and had family with special needs.  Our family as you know has children with special needs.  We were able to share God.  Talk about and understand each other because of dealing with the same daily things.  It was really encouraging.  At one point she had tears in her eyes as she said, "I believe that God places special needs individuals in the lives of those he knows can handle them."  As we left out for a lunch break I was able to read for a few minutes.  What was in big bold letters for today's reading,  I AM TAKING CARE OF YOU.  Wow, only God could orchestrate this reading on the exact day that I needed it.  The devotional went on to say that every detail of my life is under his control.  Everything fits into a pattern for my good.  Talked about events that occurred randomly. (Jury Summons) It went on to say that I could only see from a human standpoint, that God was working behind the scenes.  He is always working on my behalf and I don't need to doubt how wonderfully he is caring for me. 

Romans 8:28
Job 42:1-3
1 Peter 5:7
All of the verse that I needed.  "Okay, God, I hear you.  Thank you for being so real to me today.  I needed your grace and your reassurance that all was going to be okay and you worked it all out."  He is an awesome God.  He can work on your behalf too,  just trust him.  Even if your heart is a little shaky he understands and answers you anyway.  Come to him with all of your concerns, worries and anxieties.
