Suddenly!

Gen 25:63  " He (Isaac) went out in the field one evening to meditate, and as he looked up, he saw the camels were coming."


I'm sure that you remember the story.  Abraham had sent a servant to find a wife for his son. .... I'm sure that during that long wait Isaac spent alot of time praying and wondering as to what the Lord would or would not provide for him......
He spent time with the Lord...He meditated on HIS ways.. 
and then 
one day ~  
when he least expected it ~  
a "suddenly" occurs~  
the scripture says he looked up and saw the camels were coming. His answer was on it's way!

How do you wait?  Are you fretfully consumed....Do you take matters into your own hands? Do you pace, become despondent and anxious?   Or do you choose to trust like Isaac trusted, knowing that your life is not your own.  Isaac had a good teacher in his father and I believe that he was a young man of faith...after all he had spent some time on an altar with a knife positioned above his head and had "suddenly" experienced God's deliverance first hand.  


Friend ~  don't get weary.  Your life is not your own~ you were bought with a price~ HE owns you and has a plan.  Don't be caught unaware by the SUDDENLIES that sometimes come ~ Good or Bad they are in HIS plan for you and you MUST not be shook..... spend some time meditating in the evening like Isaac did and  listen carefully.  He will teach you, guide you, carry you.  YOU NEED NOT BE AFRAID ~  HIS banquet table is set for you ALREADY!
