Psalm 46:10
"Be still and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."
I start my new job on monday... and I'm scared stiff. But I know it's going to be good, and I know that I won't be alone there. This is what I want to do, despite what other people think of it.... despite what they think of me for doing it. It's what God has gifted me for and put in front of me to do. I praise Him, for He is always faithful.
Ecclesiasties 5:18-20:
'Then I realized that it is good and proper for a man to eat and drink, and to find satisfaction in his toilsome labor under the sun during the few days of life God has given him - for this is his lot. Moreover, when God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work - this is the gift of God. He seldom reflects on the days of his life, because God keeps him occupied with gladness of heart.'
Whatever God has provided us with, whether big or small in the worlds eyes, is still nothing less then a gift from God. Why should we not delight our hearts in those gifts?
