Providence That Provides – Daily Wisdom

Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1829 of our trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase wisdom and create a living legacy. Proverbs 16:16 says, "How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver!" If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget. Today’s quote is from Croft M. Pentz, and it is, “A providence that provides for sparrows will certainly protect the saints.”

Providence That Provides

We become overly concerned about how we are going to take care of ourselves. We panic and fret about providing for our families, paying our bills, or saving for unexpected expenses. However, if our faith is in a holy God who created all things and loves us beyond what we could ever think or imagine, we should rest in the fact that indeed He will also take care of both our small and large needs and even some of our wants, if our heart is focused on Him. Most of what we are fearful of will never come to pass. Even if we go through hardships and tribulations at times, God will give us the strength to carry on, no matter what. So let us do the best that we can with the talents and abilities given to us by God, and then allow God to provide for us just as he provides for the sparrows. Matthew 6:25-27 That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
