December 21, 2009 ~ When God Steps In

God will always be with you...to help you in all things!

Today's Scripture:

"The God who made you is like your husband. His name is the Lord All-Powerful. The Holy One of Israel is the one who saves you. He is called the God of all the earth. You were like a woman whose husband left her, and you were very sad. You were like a wife who married young and then her husband left her. But the Lord called you to be his," says your God.

Isaiah 54: 5-6

One of the biggest shifts in trends during the past few decades has been the compilation of the family. Once upon a time, the average family included a husband, wife, and kids. There were deviations from that, but it was the standard. Today that's not true. According to the U.S. Census Bureau report, sing households and single-parent households make up more than half of all households in the United States. Although a woman may have a husband during some period in her life, that doesn't mean she'll always have a mate. It is also true that some husbands are absent physically or emotionally, and even a great spouse can't always meet all the needs in a woman's life.

Selah people' and friends, if you don't have a husband to help provide the finances for your home, God can help. If you don't have a husband to be your companion,

God promises to always be with you and to be actively involved in your life.

If you need help making decisions, God promises to give wisdom. When you feel a longing to be needed and wanted, remember, God called you to be his. If you want someone to talk to, God will always listen. God is willing to fill any and all empty niches in your life.

"If you don't have a husband, or if your husband isn't meeting your needs, don't fret, panic or give in to discouragement. Let God step in and be your strength, provider, protection and friend."
