The Promise of His Return

We got all of our contracts signed today and our application filled out. Mailed adoption application, contracts, and grant application. It was a relief to take that first step; to commit to our agency and trust that the Lord is going to move through this. It's overwhelming to think about all the grant applications that have to be submitted so quickly. To know that our home study will be right around the corner and trust that God is going to provide that money. I was questioning His power and then I sat down to do my bible study. I was blown away by the truths I found in His Word and through my reading. A quote stood out to me and made me step back and see that if I keep my eyes on eternity and off of the temporary things of this world, I will have inexpressible joy! "When the present-day church decides to give the same emphasis that the New Testament gives to the Lord's return, Christians shall again experience the life-giving power and inexpressible joy in ALL circumstances that the early Apostolic church experienced as they lived thinking of His sure return." I thank my Father for sending his Holy Spirit to teach me and remind me of everything that is truth. I rest knowing that He is in control and sees the bigger picture.
