I want to see Your glory as Moses did.



I thought I knew what it was like to have my faith tested, but I really have no clue. Where I am now is somewhere where I always hoped I'd never be, but clearly where I need to be in order to learn a valuable lesson. I feel sick when I think about how quickly I forget what God has done for me. I've been in this place of need before, and even though I feel like there is so much more at stake now than then. Thankfully, God sees it as all the same, whether I need $10 bucks or $100, a full-time or part-time job Lastnight it was as if it all hit me at once, leaving me broken and desperate for God to answer. My frustration drove me to cling to Gods promises.
Heres the thing:

Phil 4:19 says "And My God will supply ALL your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus"

2 Peter 3:9 says "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness"

Matthew 6:25-30 says "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

1 Thess 5:24
says "The One who calls you is Faithful and He will do it"

What else do I need? More proof of God being faithful to His promises is found in my past. Never once has he let me down, my every need has always been met in full. He may not come through in the way I think my prayers should be answered but it's always the best way, and at exactly the right time.
Lord thank you for your faithfulness. Forgive me for doubting You and thank you in advance for providing every one of my present needs. You are good beyond measure! Amen.
