“Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!”
I found myself singing this last night as I realized, yet again, how faithful God is.
Just over three months ago I had surgery. Since February I had been fighting with the medical aid wondering why they would not pay for a surgery that my doctor and surgeon said was needed. In June they finally agreed to pay half of the surgery. I took a step into the unknown and had the surgery in July with a conscious worry at the back of my mind, how am I going to pay for my half?
Then after the surgery came the battle, yet again, with the medical aid that now were not paying what they agreed too and I found myself helpless in a situation where I didn’t know what to do and found myself consumed with worry that gave me many hard days to work through. The only thing I could do was trust that my God will provide all my needs.
Philippians 4:19
“And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.”
And that is exactly what my God did. So much has happened in the last 2 weeks that last night, as I lay in bed, I realized God’s faithfulness to me even when I doubted and let Him down. God has provided for my need that as of yesterday, the surgery is completely paid for. PTL!
God provided in a way that amazes me and I find myself awed by it. And not only that, but by His timing too. There are a few things I’m really struggling with at the moment and wondering if God will pull through….and now I can remind myself in this hard time that God IS faithful, because He just proved it in one area, and that I just need to trust and know that His timing and plan is everything.
Psalms 146:5-6
“Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
the Maker of heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them –
the Lord, who remains faithful forever."
