Dependence

Last week while listening to David Jeremiah begin his series of radio shows on Job, he made the comment that he was "nervous" about beginning that study due to the fact that often God would lead him through a time of learning that related to his study. I sat and contemplated that this was often true. How often when we begin to read and study His word does something occur in our lives that reinforces that study.

Well, this kind of occurred yesterday evening and continued today. Yesterday's Sunday School lesson, which I had to teach, was on David and Goliath. David and Saul had to face their "giants". Last evening about 4:00 we were coming home from spending the afternoon with my mom, as I stepped into the kitchen to put some stuff up the Meneres hit full force. Vertigo hit as it has never before and the nausea was severe. This episode lasted at least six hours. As I woke up this morning I feel like I was hit by a freight train. I stayed home today still fairly dizzy but not as bad.

As I laid in bed last night I was thinking Ok God is this a Giant that I will have to face the rest of my life? Will this be a common occurrence that will interfere with work and my life? I don't know, but as I drifted off to sleep I was thinking I hope I react as David did, with a confidence that God will work through this and me for His glory, and not like Saul in fear, and turning away from God.
