P. 111

Forget not those things which I have done for
                       you, and expect greater things in the future.

                       I am a just God, those who put their life in
                       My hands need never fear.


                       Await with anticipation the things that are to
                       come. They are drawing near.


                       Those things which I have spoken to you will
                       be fulfilled, for I do not lie.


                       I have listened to your heart’s cry. I have
                       not turned a deaf ear.

                       I am a father who loves to give good gifts to
                       His children. Trust My timing.

                       You must learn to listen to My voice, and My
                       voice alone. Take the path which I have set for
                       you. Do not turn to the right or to the left.

                     On this day, April 23rd, as I was praying I was led to read the Psalm of the day, which
               is not something that I normally do. As I read the Psalm I felt the presence of the Spirit, and
               I received great comfort and peace. The opening words declare, “The Lord is my Shepherd,
               I shall not want.” The word ‘want’ is a synonym for ‘lack.’ This Scripture is testifying that
               we will not know lack, for our Shepherd will take care of all of our needs.
                     Just a few days earlier I had found in a trash can in the bathroom two Scriptures
               written on 3x5 cards that I had recorded about 20 years previously. My son had gotten the
               cards and used them for some purpose, cutting a hole in the center of each one, but I could
               still read the Scriptures. They said:


                       Matthew 6:30-34
                       "Do not be anxious then, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or
                       'With what shall we clothe ourselves?' For all these things the Gentiles eagerly seek;
                       for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His
                       kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore
                       do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has
                       enough trouble of its own.”


                       Philippians 4:5-7
                       Be  anxious  for  nothing,  but  in  everything  by  prayer  and  supplication  with
                       thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which
                       surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ
                       Jesus.


                     Great  peace  was  ministered  to  me  as  I  meditated  upon  these  Scriptures.  As  I
