Widows Are Special To God

When you lose your spouse it is easy to believe that you are no longer special. You begin to say goodbye to the possibility of special moments; celebrations; laughter and you may think there is no one who really cares. I just want to encourage you, God cares, He sees, and He knows everything about you.

As a widow He is especially mindful of you and has made provision for you. Don’t give up, hold on, trust God for a brighter day – He is faithful to His Word and His promises are yea and Amen.

Here are a few reminders of God’s concern for you:

Deuteronomy 10:18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.

Jeremiah 49:11 Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.

Psalms 146:9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

Proverbs 15:25 The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow.

Zechariah 7:10 And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.

Be Encouraged!

Does God Care?

Yes, yes, yes, a resounding yes. As you transition from wife to widow it can be extremely difficult; and at times you may even think God doesn’t care. I just want to remind you that God cares so much that “… even the very hairs of your head are all numbered….” Luke 12:7 (KJV) You are valuable to Him.

You are so special to Him that He doesn’t want you to bare anything alone so, please continue “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” 1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)

Be encouraged. God Cares!

Nevertheless At Thy Word

Scripture Reading: Luke 5:1-11

Luke 5:5 “And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.” 

The scripture today allows us to see we can get more, do more, be more simply by obeying the word of the Lord.

Simon and his crew of trained fisherman had toiled all night. They were professionals, fishing was their trade, but with all of their knowledge and experience they toiled all night and had taken nothing.

As widows let’s keep in mind no matter what we think we know our ears and hearts must always remain open and ready to hear and obey God’s directions. Even after we have done our best obedience will always yield more.

Let down your defenses, let go of your fears and receive the greatness God has prepared.

Nevertheless at thy word…I yield and obey.

Luke 5:6 “And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.”

Blessings!
