In God’s Hands

Jay and I just got home from road tripping across Canada to do a film about sex trafficking, and we are both pumped about the interviews we had and the people we met. Thanks so much to those of you who have supported us in this project!
One theme that we were reminded of again and again during our journey was that we are in God’s hands. We made the poor decision to drive from North Bay to Thunder Bay in one day, and at 2:00 am we were still on the road, navigating ourselves through the curves and slopes leading to Thunder Bay while trying to stay awake and hoping that a moose would not barge out onto the road. Towns and gas stations were few and far between, and street lights were non existent. It was one of those moments where we were relying on God for every bit of progress we made.
When was the last time you were in a situation that made you desperate for God’s protection and guidance? Certain circumstances can remind us that God is indeed the one in control and keeping us alive. But how can we remember this even in the comfort of our own homes, where we feel safe and in control?
As Mark Batterson recently wrote in his blog, we take 23,000 breaths a day. Seems like we owe God 23,000 thank yous! Job 34 says that if God were to withdraw His breath all live would cease.
A man from Houston Texas just wrote on his blog that his dear wife just passed away just days after their first baby was born. Follow the blog here: http://www.bandssullivan.blogspot.com/ Let’s pray for this family and be reminded that we should never take life for granted.
Love you girls!
