the provision of God

I was reading a great passage this morning and something jumped off the page and reminded me a great truth about God. in an exhortation at the end of the letter the writer to the Hebrews says (whom i believe to be Paul) may God equip you with EVERYTHING GOOD for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him through Jesus Christ. for me that exhortation/prayer served as a reminder that God wants to provide everything good for doing his will. the night i was ordained into the ministry i said in a speech the only reason i am here is because of his amazing grace. So i realise that if he has provided in the past he will also provide in the future and i must remember to thank him for everything he has given to me in my life up to this point. what an amazing God we serve he doesn't just call us he also equips us.
