And we are getting very little rain, ground is already cracking and hard as a brick. In about a week we will be in the 90’s and when full summer hits we hit over 100+ with the heat index. Several people die each year as they cannot afford the electric bills, and a fan is not enough these days. Not to mention the kids or animals left in those hot cars by their dumb uneducated parents.

Before You Ask
May 5, 2012
An RBC Ministries international colleague shared with me her delight in serving as a translator of biblical resources. She said that she feels greatly blessed because she has the first opportunity to be ministered to by the teaching of Gods Word in the materials. As she works through them, she notes, There is always something that addresses a need Im facing. Precisely when she needs encouragement from her Lord, relevant biblical help is provided.
As she spoke, I thought of how our God faithfully cares for us in numerous ways. In the different seasons of life, we find ourselves facing all sorts of challengesbut we do not face them on our own. As Christ said, Your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him (Matt. 6:8).
In our time of needwhether spiritual, emotional, or physicalwe can depend on the faithful care and concern of the Father. He knows us so well that He chooses the perfect time to give us what is best and to send reassurance of His care. Not one [sparrow] is forgotten before God. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear . . . ; you are of more value than many sparrows (Luke 12:6-7).
We can trust the wisdom of His love.
My heart overflowsthe grace He provides
Is just what I need for my care;
Its all I could ask, whatever the task,
Whatever the burden I bear. Anon.
Gods timing is always right.
Read: Matthew 6:5-15
