“I’m sorry, Mr. Agee, that’s not a leaky water pipe in your ceiling. It’s condensation from the AC line. I’m a plumber. You’ll have to call an HVAC company to fix that. That will be $75.” “I’m sorry, Mr. Agee, you really should replace those tires before you leave on your trip. That will be $914.” “I’m sorry, Mike, but I need those assessment reports and rosters before you leave.” “I’m sorry, Mike, but I need you at this meeting Wednesday and Thursday. It’s really important you be there.” “I’m sorry to bother you Mr. Agee, but the website is acting up again. The audio has stopped."
"I'm sorry to tell you this, Mike, but the phones have stopped working again. Can you check on that?" Sound familiar to you? Paul comforts the Philippians towards the end of his letter to them, and to me, when he said “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.” If your life sounds a little like mine, let’s hang on to that promise today. Remember, when your life is spinning so fast and you feel your grip loosening, God’s has you and He will provide everything we need.
