Take time to read your own shirt!

Last night I again was starting to get some butterflies about the upcoming blood draws. Unfortunately, this is one area that I have been through and I can compare cycle to cycle on. All I know is failure. BUT, in my heart of hearts, I still believe our God is going to bless us with a positive. So, I have this battle going on in my head...I guess you could say it's a spiritual battle over belief and faith. I am trying my HARDEST to stay focused on God and nothing else.

So, as I was going through a struggle last night, God spoke to me...through my t-shirt! HA! I've had this shirt for like 3 years. I wear it all the time. It's from a youth retreat at church where we were leaders at this event.

Side note, last year I did a woman's Bible study on Daniel from Beth Moore (amazing I might add.) I really felt called to the story of the three men (no, I can't spell their names off hand) who were going to be thrown in the fiery furnace. They believed God could deliver them from the furnace, and even if he didn't they would still only serve God. This story I feel relates to what I'm going through. IF is my fiery furnace. So my motto has been this last cycle, God has the power to deliver me from this fiery furnace (IF). But even if he doesn't, I will serve HIM.

Back to my story...I was getting ready for bed and I took of my t-shirt and looked at it. It says "Consuming Fire" on top with a cool looking cross with flames on the bottom. Then there's a verse...and I actually set down my shirt, then caught a glance at one of the words and was like WHAT! Here's what is says

If we are thrown into the blazing furnace the God we serve is able to save us from it, and he will rescue us. Daniel 3:17

That's my verse! HA! I've been praying this verse for months and all along it was on my t-shirt and I didn't even know it!!!! That was an amazing God moment for me, he knew I needed that...how funny to think that God can even use our t-shirts to speak to us! I wore it today to my blood draw, and I felt AMAZING peace afterwards. It's in God's hands.
