Maybe God inspired me this morning with a reminder, using my pet for the inspiration. It worked well. I had posted this on my Facebook page and decided I would share in my blog as well..I am still behind on my writings here. I have much to share later after this next page is turned from what I am currently experiencing. This post is encouraging. Enjoy.
Good morning! ☕️
Walking my dog this morning and there was this thought. Yep, our life and every day living is filled with challenges and obstacles that occasionally bring us fear. We get restless and anxious about a circumstance out of our control. After my dog Gypsi had taken care of her business, I walked to the street to get the trash can after TWS service had emptied it. Gypsi was scared to death of that can. I had her on leash as she pulled back from it! I walked on into the yard as she was steadily pulling against the leash and looking back making sure it wasn’t coming near her. When I parked it in its place, I thought why were you so afraid? Jesus asked his diciples the same question in the stormy sea after they woke him up to calm the storm. (Mark 4:37-40) Gypsi was so afraid of the trash can that she kept the leash tight never loosing sight. I guess we can get the same way. Never loosing sight of what we are scared of and forgetting that God is in control. I was in control of that big, taller than her, loud, rolling, can in one hand and had her in the other. She just needed to trust me. We just need to trust God in the storms too. He has the storms under control in one hand, and carries us securely in His other. No matter how big or loud the storm, Jesus will calm the sea of uncertainty and fear. We just need to trust and be faithful. Yall have a great and blessed day in the Lord! 👊🙏🙌
