12 The Lord will indeed give what is good,
and our land will yield its harvest.
13 Righteousness goes before him
and prepares the way for his steps. Psalm 85:12-13
Do you ever anticipate what God is going to do for you or give to you? This could be a problem if our mind is solely focused on what we want in our life, and what we think we need. Do you think about what God has given you? I mean, do you think about the gift of everlasting life through belief in our Savior Jesus Christ? Or is your mind throughout the week wondering about the next bill that is coming in, that next meal that we are going to have, or whether or not we can fill our gas tank in our vehicle? Everything that God gives us is good. The smallest thing, like a smile from the ones we love, the kind word or deed we receive, and even the safety in our travels. All of these are small things that we probably don't anticipate, but we know that He will give. How about knowing that everything He gives is good and for His purpose, and if we live with that mindset we won't sit around and worry about anticipating what we are going to get. We can be thankful for what we get because we know it comes from the Lord.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
