Provision

Come and see the works of God;
He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.
-Psalm 66:5
I am continually amazed by the awesome works of God. He blesses me so abundantly.
I am learning that when I trust God, He is faithful to provide for me.
Next March I am going to travel to Italy and Greece with my Classical Literature teacher. When I learned of the opportunity, I was excited to go, but daunted by the large bill that I will have to pay for the trip. Somehow though, the funds are appearing. I have approximately half the money needed.
This is not the first time that God has provided for me financially. In 2006, my mom decided that she wanted my brother and me to attend Worldview Academy. Through diligent work and the generosity of others, we had more than enough to pay the tuition--in about two weeks.
God is displaying Psalm 34:8-10 in my life:
Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good;
Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!
Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints!
There is no want to those who fear Him.
The young lions lack and suffer hunger;
But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
