♕ Today's Promise: “God, with his mighty power at work in our lives, is able to do much more than we ask for, and even more than we can imagine.” Ephesians 3:20
From ~ Tiara in Poland
I want to thank the Lord for equipping me faithfully to carry out the tasks to which he calls me, taking care of my needs.
A few months ago, I started having trouble recording audio for the service. There were strange noises on the recording, regardless of whether I was recording on the phone as always or trying two laptops and using different applications and websites. Nothing helped. I prayed to get it fixed and help me find a solution, but it was a long time and I was getting impatient. Various thoughts began to come to me, undermining the confidence that the Lord would help me with this, and I began to think how I could solve this problem.
I started looking at equipment to buy. I assumed I would have to spend more money because I wanted everything to work out well. I was frustrated that I didn't know the subject and didn't know what to choose. During this time, I continued to seek the Lord's guidance, and I remember being discouraged by how long this affair dragged on and praying to Philippians 4:19 and to the fact that God does not lie, and I need to be able to complete the task entrusted to me in the place where he called me. Soon after that, I thought that my mother has a friend who knows the equipment very well and has helped us more than once. I considered leaving the problem to myself or asking my mother to ask him for help, but the thought kept repeating and it felt like I should. I was convinced that it is necessary to discern when to entrust a given matter only to the Lord, where we should always address ourselves in the first place, and when His help is to be fulfilled by another person. To be honest, I didn't really believe it would do anything, I wasn't sure if I knew this kind of recording equipment, but I asked for help anyway.
The next day, my mother sent me a paid application recommended by him for recording on the phone. I was surprised because she was supposed to ask him for help in finding hardware to buy, but I started looking for this app and saw that there was also a free version, so I wanted to try it first. I've tried tons of apps and sites on my phone so far, so I predicted the same problems. I couldn't believe how the recording, even without the microphone, came out beautifully and cleanly from the headphones, without any distortions! I was delighted with the quality of the recording. And, as is often the case when the Lord exceeds our imaginations and blesses us even more than we expected, the solution turned out to be completely free! I have no idea how it works, because I really tried many things, but I just adored the Lord for helping me once again, providing me with supplies, not leaving me alone with the problem. I regretted that I doubted whether he would help me in this matter in time, I did not understand why he had delayed the answer for so long. You could say the help came at the last minute when I really needed to be able to record.
This situation confirmed me once again that I do not have to worry about being left alone with any need, because the Lord will always provide for me. I suppose my trust and faith had been tested, and although it was weak towards the end, it reminded me of the promises, so I kept looking for His guidance, being honest with Him about what I thought and how I felt. It is so important that we know His promises and keep them in our heart, and I believe that praying the Word of God has great power. It all reminded me of how often she becomes impatient with her expectation, but the Lord always responds or fulfills his promise at the perfect time, often beyond what we imagine, and over time we see how our expectation has been used for our good, so that we, among other things, they may have learned something or even realized that our faith or heart was not where we thought it was, which is also a blessing.
I would like to encourage you, dear sister, to turn to your Heavenly Husband with every need and desire, and to pay attention to Him in every matter, at every step. He will take care of you better than anyone else, remember that you are not alone and He cares for you. Trust even when the answer to prayer does not come immediately. You will see that probably filling it will be beyond what you expect and imagine!
