Yesterday’s post, entitled “We Know What We Want”,
put forth the idea that unspoken expectations can wreak havoc in our
relationships, especially as they are often unreasonable. In that post, I mostly focused on expectations
between people.
One commenter to that post gave this input.
“Aren't we glad God knows what we want and need? He gives us our needs, and if we are following Him it will also cover our wants.”
OK. This
comment sums up in a nutshell everything I wanted to say in today’s post. Enough said.
Catch you tomorrow.
No, seriously,
let’s unpack that comment and see what the Bible has to say about God’s
provision. I’d like to focus on four verses today. The first two
have the same context, so let’s look at them together.
