That is why we keep on talking to God about you since the day we heard about you. We ask him that you may know everything he wants you to do. We ask him that you may be very wise and that the Spirit will help you to understand.
We ask him that you will live the way the Lord wants you to live, so that you will please him in everything you do. We ask that you will do everything that is good. We ask that you will see the fruit from what you do. We ask that you will know more and more about God. God has wonderful power. And we ask him to give you all the strength you need to go through all your troubles, to be very patient in them, and to be happy. Thank the Father who has made us ready to be with the people of God who live in his light.

Colossians 1:9-12

 

DAY 7—”What is that?”

 

One of the greatest lessons for us to learn is that God will provide for us, even in the wilderness like He did with Moses.

Exodus 16:15And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna (“What is that?”): for they wist  (knew) not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.
(MSG) 13-16 That evening quail flew in and covered the camp and in the morning there was a layer of dew all over the camp. When the layer of dew had lifted, there on the wilderness ground was a fine flaky something, fine as frost on the ground. The Israelites took one look and said to one another, man-hu (What is it?). They had no idea what it was. So Moses told them, "It's the bread God has given you to eat.

 

Psalm 104:24—O LORD, how manifold are Thy works! in wisdom hast Thou made them all: the earth is full of Thy riches.
(MSG) What a wildly wonderful world, God!
You made it all, with Wisdom at your side,
made earth overflow with your wonderful creations.

Philippians 4:19—But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
(MSG) You can be sure that God will take care of everything you need, his generosity exceeding even yours in the glory that pours from Jesus. Our God and Father abounds in glory that just pours out into eternity. Yes.

 

FATHER, what I’m finding about Your faithfulness is sometimes more than my mind can figure out. I thought I would have to be more holy in the eyes of others, and here You are loving me just like I am. I’ve still got a long way to go, but oh, how wonderful You are! You’re my Father, my Friend, my Pal, my Counselor. NOW, I need to talk with you about something. I’ve never been able to share with anyone how I feel about this. But, You already know! And You still love me! That’s awesome!
