It's raining

7 September  2012
 
Ephesians 1:9-10 For he has made known to us in all wisdom and insight the mystery of his will, according to his purpose which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

God really has a sense of humour, yesterday in the encouragement that we had not got a drop of rain, last evening the rain started and has not stopped! Last night I also had an expectation of deep fried fish with chips, I made the chips and the electricity went off, so after a cold supper and a candle light experience the warmest place was bed. This morning I have a meeting at the conservancy dam to discuss the winter flow into the dam as it has been very dry, and the Lord gives us 40mm of rain. I can just imagine the meeting to discuss the inflow to the dam from the spring in the rain.

This just makes us realise how little we are able to control things, we cannot control the weather, we cannot control power failures, so sometimes we just need to accept and live with what we have. It is these that we begin to understand how blessed we are, and when we tense up it’s like shouting at the thunder. God has His plan and nothing is going to change it, so we need to stick to His plan and we will be OK. His plan is that we live life and enjoy it without hurting others.

Be encouraged today to enjoy what the day brings.


David


Point to ponder: Be in God’s plan.

Question to consider: Are you part of God’s plan?
