Why Worry?

I was reading a quote from Streams in the Desert via another blog that was a good reminder for my current condition:

"Why do you worry? What possible use does your worrying serve? You are aboard such a large ship that you would be unable to steer even if your Captain placed you at the helm. You would not even be able to adjust the sails, yet you worry as if you were the captain or the helmsman of the vessel. Be quiet, dear soul - God is the Master!"


We are still praying. Eamon is scheduled, we are proceeding as planned unless God intervenes - and we are leaving that door pretty wide open. God will make His way known - in His time. Remember the Israelites - God parted the Red Sea after they got their feet wet. He asked them to go into the water before he responded. Abraham brought Isaac up the mountain, and to the alter before God provided the ram. God triumphed over the grave after 3 days of silence. We will wait, expecting. We are Counting on God! (If you'd like listen below, the song is fun and seems to be the rallying cry of our family) Thanks for walking and waiting with us - you are loved!

There is no one else we can count on - NO ONE but God! So we wait - together and we are counting on God to show up in a big way and in His amazing and awesome timing! He is so good at that!
