Hope For Today

In the Bible, It is written:   In this world, we will have tribulation. But don't worry Jesus has already overcome the world. John 16:33(My paraphrase)

I know firsthand how difficult it is not to worry when trials come. Once when my husband retired early because of health issues, we sold our home (our little piece of heaven outside of town.) One buyer backed out two days before closing the deal. We had already moved out, put our things in storage, we decided not to return. We were living in our 18 ft camper, at a couple of parks, close by, for the next nine months.

When we a sold the house I felt homeless, naked, and alone. I missed my home and my all of my stuff. During that time we went through our belongings donating most to charity. I kept some treasures from my son, grandson and my childhood. Also some favorite home items. As we worked reducing the amount of stuff we had collected it became therapeutic. I spent some years and many tears crying out to God about why I was in this situation.

Several years later I have changed my mindset from being; homeless, naked and alone, into;  I'm a full-time RV'er, well covered and making new friends everywhere I go. I know God is with me he has never left me, and the transition has only been the launching pad to an evangelistic ministry in a way I never knew before.

When everything looked hopeless, God came through, showed me the "light at the end of the tunnel." I had hope for the future.  God has plans for our good not evil, plans to give us hope for the future. Jeremiah 29:11

Now settled into this new lifestyle, I meet people I would never have had the opportunity to meet otherwise. I have opportunities to pray for the needs of these people when maybe they would not have had anyone to offer a prayer on their behalf.

One of the first scriptures I read when I  knew God was speaking to my heart so many years ago,  now makes perfect sense to me it is, Mark 16:15-20  Go out to the world,  preach the gospel to every creature. Now I have more opportunities to do that.

I am praying for all those who are experiencing times of trouble today, and I know many others are keeping you all in prayer as well.  I pray God will see you through and set your feet on solid ground. Psalm 40:2 In Jesus name. Amen
