Subject: I Never Thought You'd Ask! Be Encouraged Today!

Be Encouraged Today. Your help is in the Lord.

Have you ever kept a journal? If you have then you know how tedious it can be. Imagine if you planned your entire day and then wrote it out. That would be some chore wouldn't it? Guess what, God has a book with YOUR life recorded in it. That's right each and every detail.

You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God! They are innumerable. I can't even count them, they out number the grains of sand. And when I wake up in the morning, you are still with me! Psalm 139:16-18

Today I read this scripture and it gave me great comfort. The thought of EVERY DAY of my life being recorded in God's book is so amazing. Every moment of my life has been laid out by God. Oh, Praise God! We are so precious to Him. We are so loved that He thinks about us all the time. What an amazing God we serve.

What a loving Father we have. Hallelujah! He knows every step we will follow. He knows every time we will fall. He knows every sin we will commit. Yet He loves us. He has planned amazing things for us. He has the power to change things in an instant. He is with each and every one of us every moment of our lives.

He is with us when we wake up every morning. Sometimes, we forget that He is that powerful. With His voice, the earth and man were created. With His love and kindness, He carefully laid out every moment of our lives. So, why then do we handle so many things in our lives without God's help?

I want to remind you today that God has everything planned out for you. He will not lead you the wrong way but will guide you on the path He has planned for you. The choice is yours whether to follow Him or not. Will you follow Him today, totally? Will you trust God for every detail of your life or will you try to handle things on your own?

You know the right answer, so what's holding you back. Are you afraid to walk by faith and not by sight? Well, don't be afraid. He cares enough to know every detail of your life, so let Him have full reign over it. He has the power to handle every detail too. So, don't let fear or anxiety rule in your life, instead hand everything over to God.

Let the strength and power of a living God rule your life today. For, there is nothing formed against you that shall prosper, as long as you turn it over to Him. His Word tells us this. God has your back, your front and your sides. He has everything covered. So, never give up and don't forget that every moment of your life has been laid out by God. Start trusting that God will soon let you know exactly what He has in store for you. Your job is to wait.
