God's Power Over Circumstances

Yesterday was Elizabeth's first day of band camp. They are working on a program called "Monsters," though I couldn't quite comprehend what all that will include. Something about Frankenstein perhaps.

This is such a dry, hot week to be marching around outside, but I don't think we'll be getting any cooler weather for a while, so I guess they'll just have to put on sunscreen and stay hydrated!

This drought business isn't too fun for anyone, but it especially doesn't look promising for farmers around here.

According to an article I read last night, Missouri's corn and soybean conditions are the worst in the nation. And another said we can't expect this drought to end anytime soon. It may continue through the rest of this year.

But, like we learned in Bible School last night, God has power over our circumstances. He saved Daniel from the lions' den for His glory, and He has the power to do anything in our lives today.

I don't know if He will bring us rain or not, but I do know His plan is right. It may not always be fun, but it is right. And we must to rejoice always, pray continually, and give thanks in all circumstances (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).

"Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and power are His." Daniel 2:20
