So I’m an avid fan of VeggieTales. Not only because my nephew loves watching them with me, but because even for someone in their late 20’s that has been a Christian practically all her life, there are many lessons to be learned. The moment I think I know everything, is when my life seems to be put to a test.
So I’m watching VeggieTales Gideon, and during the main story, Gideon (Larry) has accepted that God has called him, and he has cut his army by 2/3…he walks to the edge of the cliff and looks at the enemy the Midianites. And Larry turns to the angel and asks, “Do you ever have a hard time trusting God?” Comes the reply “Me? No, I see Him everyday. I know how glorious He is. I know he never breaks His promise. I also know He loves you ‘cuz he told me…It’s easy for an angel to trust God, but you have faith in something you haven’t even seen! I admire that. Trust him Gideon; He’ll never let you down.”
See? Such good things for adults too. I’ve recently just gone through a bout of trying to do things on my own. When will we ever learn right?! Well, I guess we’re all in our own process. But it had taken the simple story told by vegetables to remind me of God’s love, and my need to trust Him with everything. He will never let me down. Although in my flesh, I may see or think that…I don’t always see the whole picture.
Just wanted to share that with you. Be blessed, and know the battle belongs to the Lord.
Philippians 4:19 “And my God will fully satisfy every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus”
Be blessed.
