Psalm 31:19 Oh, how great is Your goodness, which you have laid up for those who fear You, which You have prepared for those who trust in You in the presence of the sons of men!
The other day I sent a little parcel with some gifts I'd made for a friend's grand daughters for Easter and as I was posting them very late I prayed over the parcel and asked the Lord to please make sure it got there at the right time even if it was late.
I've just had a phone call from that friend and her words were 'Your parcel came on Tuesday but it was at exactly the right time because we'd just had a horrible thing happen and it helped to make things better.'
The Lord is amazing how He's interested in all the things that matter to us even down to a little parcel for some little girls whose family is being torn apart by divorce.
I was so encouraged by that episode because it let's me know that God is never late but always on time even in the details of life. We can know for sure that He will direct us along the pathways He wants for us and His timing will be perfect so we can rest in that knowledge.
When God is involved in our lives we can know He is in control and will bring the best solution to our problems if we look to Him and trust Him.
There are times when we need to make a sacrifice of praise when things are not how we want them but we praise Him just because He's worthy of our praise. I think our praise releases His angels to work on our behalf and I love those special 'God Moments' when you recognise His hand has been at work and it brings such a smile to our faces.
When I heard that parcel had arrived at 'just the right time' I smiled and raised my hand and praised the Lord for His goodness and kindness to two little girls because He loves them, even though they don't know it yet, and just in case you've forgotten HE LOVES YOU TOO.
So as you praise Him today be on the lookout for His special God Moments, His great goodness, and know that you are walking into His prepared goodness for you. How awesome is that!
Thank You Lord, we receive it by faith and we praise you in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Reading: Let the Lord minister to you today as you read all of Psalm 31.
