In Other Words Tuesday



Give yourself permission not to know, and be satisfied knowing the One who does."

~ by Joyce Meyer, "I Dare You": Wow, what a great quote. We should all chew on it for awhile. Why do we so often think that we have to know everything, about everything? When difficult circumstances come into our lifes, why do we immediately say why? Why me? Well, why not you my friend? Stop spending so much time, asking so many questions, about so many things, and you may finally realize, that the answer to all of your questions, has been right by your side, and His name is Jesus. He knows it all, and that is all you need to know.

AMEN!We ask questions because that's what humans do. LoL!
We are children who need a FATHER.
I'm so glad he holds my future.
This is definitely one to "chew" on.

I'll say an AMEN to this! We don't need to know all the answers because we do know Jesus. Thanks for this.

How often have we told our kids to stop asking so many questions. If they just would have done as they were told it would have been done by now. Sometimes we need to follow our own advice and willingly accept the answers we do get or even don't get in God's time frame not our own.
