Today, the day began being very cold; actually last night was in the 20's!  Where the week before in was in the 60's and 70's!

The weather this winter has been very different to what we normally receive.  It had been very warm considering it was winter – and so to be in the 20's last night and 30's this morning during the early Spring really came as a surprise.

Life can be unpredictable too!  We can have good days when everything is in perfect harmony, then there are days when we seem to be sitting underneath our own storm clouds.  We get hit from all directions with trouble of one kind or another, and we can’t seem to catch our breath because of the intensity of life.

When times like this occur, it is a huge help to open your Bible – or a Bible – and search for words of comfort.  There are Scriptures that deal with the uncertainties of life and tell us how to respond.

Philippians 4:6  Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Seeking peace through prayer to God, can fill us with a peace beyond our understanding(Philippians 4:7).  He will honor our diligent and sincere prayer, and will meet us where we have greatest need of Him.

Psalm 119:135 Make Your face shine upon Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.  (NKJV)

Prayer:

Lord, help me to understand that life is not always the way I want it to be. And when things do not go my way, help me to trust what Your Word says, that you will use all things for Your glory and my good. It is in Jesus Name I pray. Amen.
