The water that I will give them will become in them a spring which WILL PROVIDE them with life-giving water and give them eternal life. [Jesus]

John 4:14 (Good News Translation)

~~~

At the beginning of each year I set a goal to learn more about God or to grow strong in an area where I feel weak.

Due to dealing with the pain and emotions from my accident on December 21, I hadn’t settled on anything for 2012.

Over the weekend when meditating on the faith of Abraham and Joseph, God spoke to me about relying on and trusting Him to supply my needs, rather than being afraid or overly concerned about the many uncertainties I am facing.  

The verse that really “grabbed” me was the one I posted yesterday.

So Abraham called that place the LORD will provide (Genesis 22:14 NIV).

My goal this year is to “put down a stake” or “take a stand” each time I feel fear, insecurity, or unnecessary concern. I am calling the crossroad where the accident occurred, “The Lord Will Provide.”

I want to receive courage and strength this year in knowing

The Lord Will Provide.
