this is why

my pastor was talking about prayer today...well, actually he was talking about all the different names God gave Himself to show us what He's like to lead up to a series of sermons of prayer...anyway, one of them translates to "God my provider." God knows all the stars in the sky (i'll have to look up the reference for that) which is really cool b/c there are quite a few...but my pastor said this and i liked it:


 "...as long as the stars are still in the sky, God will provide for your needs...."


another thing is this verse...i found it the other day and i really, really liked it....


"You've kept track of my every toss and turn through the sleepless nights, each tear entered in your ledger, each ache written in your book.... Fearless now, I trust in God; what can mere mortals do to me? God, you did everything you promised, and I'm thanking you with all my heart. You pulled me from the brink of death, my feet from the cliff-edge of doom. Now I stroll at leisure with God in the sunlit fields of life."
~psalm 56:8,11-13


                     so yeah...that's why.
