TODAY!

I promised that the next letter in our EASTER acrostic would be a dynamic 'life-changer' as a result of us living in Jesus' Supernatural Kingdom.  The word I had in mind was TODAY!  Easter is not just a story from the past or a significant Christian holiday on the calendar........Easter is for TODAY in SO MANY ways.

But thanks to Heidi and her timely guess on fb along with some 'extenuating circumstances' that have just arisen in our lives, I am expanding my T word to two words.............Trusting Today. 

Let me explain the extenuating circumstances.  As some of you already know, Alex went for a heart dye test last week and what we thought would be a simple procedure has now turned into much more than that.  There were more blockages than they were able to fix with the standard 'stents' (yes, that is spelled correctly :) so we are now on a waiting list for him to have open heart surgery sometime in the near future!!!! 

So, you can see where I'm going with this.  Because of our present circumstances, I can share very personally about Trusting Today as opposed to NOT living in Jesus' Kingdom and NOT knowing that I can trust Him in the now.  Get a load of just a few of the 'life-changers' that we are experiencing because of Christ's death and resurrection Easter.

We are Trusting Today that if God were to take Alex (and they have assured us that the chance of that happening in this surgery is very very small) that he will be with Jesus in Heaven and we will see each other again.  1Thessalonians 4:13-18
We are Trusting Today that His grace
will be sufficient as we go through this difficult time. 
2 Corinthians 12:9
We are Trusting Today that there is tremendous purpose in what is happening in our lives right now and that God will work it all together for good.  Romans 8:28
We are Trusting Today that God still loves us...........hardships in our lives do not change that fact.  Romans 8:35-39
We are Trusting Today that God's plans for us are for good, not for evil, to give us a future and a hope.  Jeremiah 29:11
We are Trusting Today that God will work out the details of the next few months of our lives just as He has been doing for the last many years as we have looked to Him for His help and guidance. 
Proverbs 3:5-6


How about it friend?  Are you agreeing with me that these 'life-changers' are WOW!  If not, don't wait til you get to Heaven to find out.............move into the 'Kingdom' now and claim all these and more for yourself by Trusting Today!

I want to believe these life-changers, but I am struggling to trust right now. There is proof all around me, in God's word, the place I live and the people who live there, the church family that I belong to. God help me to trust, no matter what, to have the faith that would say I trust You Lord. Amen.

I'm praying you can let go and let God be God in your life Theresa. <3

There is so much more to trusting when you add the "today" to it. Makes it pretty up close and personal. My problems are here today and I need to trust today. I am starting on a journey to learn about an illness I have. It will require a lot of trust, just like I read about in the meditation, so I can learn to live with it instead of living in spite of it.

Wow! Yes trusting today seems to be a bigger challenge than "trusting" (although in God's eyes perhaps it is the same). Trusting today puts my prayers (about the future) into perspective. I can trust that *today* God will show me what He needs/wants to show me and that whatever steps need to be taken for the future, I can trust today that He will reveal each part in His time.
I have to add that sometimes I need to not just trust today but trust *now* (Trust This moment in Time) LOL
