Trusting GodMy daughter Miranda

As the Wednesday evening Bible Study ended, I made my way to the altar to kneel and pray. I was feeling a great heaviness about Miranda's trip. It seemed as though my daughter would be traveling nearly half way around the world. It was difficult to let her leave for six weeks to Louisiana, but now she was preparing to leave for nearly three months! Getting her to the Atlanta Airport and making our way home took up most of the day, and saying goodbye to her at the airport was certainly an emotional moment.

As I prayed God reminded me that my wife and I had dedicated our daughter to Him. He is our loving Heavenly Father, and he loves her more than we do! I am remembering a line in song entitled "Fear Not My Child," that says, "I know how to care for what belongs to me."

Since there is a time and a season for everything, this is just a time for trusting God. We have this promise in Romans 8:28.

And we know that in all things God works
for the good of those who love him, who
have been called according to his purpose.

I am certain that God has a purpose in her life, and that He able to keep what we have committed to Him.

Today, if you have worries or concerns, let me encourage you to give them God. He cares about what's happening in your life too. Why not commit it all to Him? Have a blessed day.
