TRUST

You thought this was a picture of a toad. No, it is a picture of trust. He/she/it, is waiting for lunch. "He [God] gives animals their food and feeds the young ravens when they call." - Psalms 147:9 (TEV) Jesus said, "Look at the birds: they do not plant seeds, gather a harvest and put it in barns; yet your Father in heaven takes care of them! Aren't you worth much more than birds?" -Matthew 6:26 (TEV) Yes, the Scriptures teach us to work for a living. But we are to take our needs to God and trust him to work it out, instead of worrying about it.
Incidentally, this particular toad was
basking in the sun. I want to follow his example and bask in the love of God while waiting in trust for Him to work
things out for me.
This little guy is on to something. He was back
the next dayjust as fat as could be. He is waiting again in trust of his creator for another meal.
Speaking of being on to something. I have found a
refreshing blog called "From My Prayer Chair" by
Malinda Edgell. It is concise and insightful. Well
worth the minute it takes to read it.
Try it. You will like it.

Love this! I'm on my way over to visit your recommended blog site too.

Also, I had some difficulty getting to this post. It shows up on my blogroll, but when I click to your site, the post about Two Hams & a Turkey appears. It may be "operator error" as sometimes I don't operate so well :)
