JOYCE’S PURSE!
Philippians 4:19 – Devotional
Philippians 4:19
“My God shall supply all your need by His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.“
This would have been the 89th birthday for my precious wife, Joyce. One of the most endearing memories I have of my wife was her purse. Her purses only came in sizes large and super large. We teased her about the size of her purses, but you know what? When we needed a band-aid, aspirin, sewing kit, tweezers, scissors – – I think you get the point. Joyce’s purse was the source of supply.
When I recall my many years of walking with the Lord, He has always been my source of supply. When I am weak He is strong. When I travel through the valley of grief He has supported me. When I have felt attacked, He has been my strength.
It is interesting to read today’s Scripture and discover that God has promised to supply all of our need. That does not automatically mean He will supply all of our WANTS. Many times our wants are not what is best for us. In fact our wants may be harmful to our spiritual or even physical well being.
The answer to discovering a strong spiritual balance is to stay close to the Lord and allow Him to supply everything we need to be effective servants. He goes before us and knows what we will need to before we even ask Him. “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:6
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
