Sometimes, though over and over and over God has been so good to me I am still beset with doubt. Paul talks in Romans about this and I take comfort that such a great man sometimes experienced the same emotions that I do.
Paul is such an inspiration to me in many ways. When I err and stray from the path God has set my life to I think of Paul being lowered in a basket over the city walls because the Christians were after him.
When I see sin in my life I look to the life that Paul led as Saul crucifying Christians, believing he was following the will of God. When Jesus blinded him on the road to Damascus where he was going to crucify Christians, he never hesitated, he knew who had blinded him.
I already feel better, I have been sitting here fretting about whether I will be among those who qualify for the extended unemployment benefits. I cannot get the same answer out of any two people, and so far no money added to my account.
But, God has blessed me so much I will hold on to my faith that as He promised if I followed Him, He would take care of all my needs. Often it is not the way I would expect it, but I wait for Him to lead me.
