Joshua 2:4 Then the woman took the two men and hid them. So she said, “Yes, the men came to me, but I did not know where they were from.

Have you ever wondered why God chose Rahab, a harlot, to protect the spies? What would you say a person like that was good at doing? Keeping secrets. Telling lies. Hiding the truth…

God knew it would take a special kind of person to hide the spies from the guards because a normal person would be found out easily!

No matter how bad we think we have been in our own lives, God will always be able to use us in a new way; as long as we are willing to submit to Him and allow Him to use us as we are!

Jeremiah 31:25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.

When we get to learn we are sinners and in need of forgiveness, our souls become heavy and we don’t always see the way forward until someone is kind enough to explain.

Christ will send someone your way or will plant the seeds in your own mind so you can move forward with Him.

It is the love of Christ that shines through everything around us to give us hope of the future with God in heaven.

That hope fills up our hearts and the love and joy spill over for others to see.

Psalm 107:9 For He satisfies the longing soul, And fills the hungry soul with goodness.

When we are willing to listen to God and obey Him we find He is more than willing and faithful to supply our needs and fill us with joy and peace.

This is not to say we will all have an abundant earthly life if we just believe in God but rather our souls will be filled with all of our needs.

We will also find He does look after us and does supply our needs in earthly ways which would otherwise seem improbably or even impossible.

I personally enjoy seeing how much God does in my life as a live a life depending more on Him each day. It is not always easy, but very fulfilling!
