Matthew 6: 25-34

I've been putting off posting because it's just hard to articulate what we've been going through as a family this past week. For the first time in our married life, we have found ourselves unemployed. The statistics and bad economic news you've heard from the media for the past year have finally included us in its numbers. Last week was one filled with so many different emotions; from disbelief, anger, numbness, fear, and then peace as we realize that even this is in God's hands. So many bible verses come to mind and give great comfort. Matthew 6: 25-34 is well known in our household (Steve Green) - the kids had this one memorized as toddlers. We'll go forward in this comfort and pray that God will open doors elsewhere and that we indeed will not worry about tomorrow!!

We're thinking of you too. It's so good to know we're not in control of our lives and that we have a Father who cares for us daily! He will provide in His time. Continue to trust in Him,
Best wishes, E & L.
