Random Thoughts

I really only have random thoughts for today. These thoughts come from my bible study that I have been doing over the life of Moses.

-God is continually working in the midst of daily activity.
-Faith is believing God and acting on it.
-Where do I need to let go and trust God?
-God is good when news is good. God is good when news is bad. His goodness never changes.
-We need to trust God in all circumstances, not just pleasant ones.
-The greatest reward in this life is to be used by God for His glory.
-God's work must be done in God's way, God's timing and through his power alone.
-Be dependent upon Him.
-God prepares us for what He is going to do in our lives.
-God is in charge.
-He is sovereign. He knows what is best for us.
-Sometimes obeying God makes life harder.
-It is always easier to see God's plan in hindsight than in the midst of the storm.
-Disappointments, failures, and trials are opportunities to get to know God more deeply.
-Impossible situations are opportunities to trust God's promises and mightily glorify Him.

I am enjoying learning more about the Lord and applying things to my life. May I do the challenging thing--may I live out what I am learning. That is always a little difficult for me.
