Chapter 22 - Socks…

MY QUESTION:
Socks…

Has anyone ever had a pair of socks that had holes in them and these socks will walk on their own? Even if they are the only pair you own, you keep trying to extend their usefulness. You keep trying with every worldly effort that you have inside of you.

Guess what: Try doing this with the concept of SURRENDER! Why are we in the way of HIS works!
I thought that I had been pruned in the worldly concept, however I was wrong. GOD bless GOD!
Just when I worldly thought that it was over, HE takes over. I am not trying to preach here. We suck!

It is GOD that has a plan for us, not us! I have been used by HIM during my unemployment and homeless. HE even used me dog! HE brought people to my rescue. I have clothes and food today. All I need is what I need today. Tomorrow will take care of itself. 

Please don’t get me wrong, I went kicking and screaming, but SURRENDERING to HIS will is cool…

Any thoughts?

Discussion: Socks…
John, you're a living testimony to the truth of Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? [g] 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
An excerpt from my book and also posted on my blog deals with this issue of seeking Him first. http://standinginfaithministries.com/2012/07/11/seek-him-first/
