Everything we need comes from God


And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19

I woke up this morning with the words of one of my favorite songs on my mind.I love to sing the song while I'm driving, it always turns into worship and puts a smile on my face. I'm sure God is smiling too.
Mark Schultz - "All Things Possible" Below is a couple verses.

"And when life knocks me down 
I am not counted out 
For You're with me"

"My God is strong and mighty
My God is faithful
My hope is in the Lord
For He is able"

I have no doubt God put the song on my mind this morning because life has knocked me down. You see I am looking for full time employment and wanting to start a new career - which has been going on now for a year and a half. I graduated from college in Dec. 2011 with hopes of starting a new career. I've had a couple temporary jobs since then, but nothing permanent. Recently a contract job I had came to an end. 

What has got me down is not having to look for a job, but that there are not very many good and credible job opportunities available. I have never liked job hunting, but now it seems almost impossible. That's where God comes in, if something is impossible for us - it's not impossible for God. God and I make a majority. God and you make a majority. God can open doors for you when it looks like all the doors are locked or when there are no more doors, He can make a door and open it for you.

I know that anything is possible with God. I know that God is in control. I know that God causes everything to work together for my good and His glory.

I just don't know why He won't give me a job. I know He can. He is telling me to trust Him. The funny thing is that even though things are the way they are - no job, no prospects, debt, the roof needs fixing, the car needs new brakes, husband needs new glasses - I still have peace and I have hope in God. You see, the God I serve can turn things around in the blink of an eye. I don't know why things are the way they are, but I know the Lord God Almighty.
