Tuesday Morning - Thought for the Day

We interrupt the couponing for a few minutes to bring you a Tuesday Morning Thought of the Day.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord,  plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future".

--Jeremiah 29:11

Have you ever stopped to reflect on how God places us in situations for a reason?  It is how we choose to respond to these situations that is important in our spiritual growth. We can choose to mumble, groan and complain or we can simply choose to say:

 "Lord, Be Glorified"

Sometimes we pray for the situation or circumstance to change, but we have to realize that if we are still in it, then God is not through yet. He wants to be totally glorified in every aspect of our life. So when faced with trials and tribulations let us turn back to Him and give Him the glory. We are so truly blessed, and we don't have to look far to realize that there are so many with much greater burdens than our own.

So, if you are in the middle of a challenging situation, open God's word and reflect on the scripture.  Pray for His guidance and for His will to be complete in you. 

Here's a great song to encourage you.  "While I'm Waiting" by John Waller.

--A big "thank you" to my friend Lacey for allowing God to use you and share this message that I'm sure so many people are needing today!!
