Psalm 104 - To do, turn over

Its August. Checkpoint. This is the month where the mind starts to shift. School starts this month. You start to gear up with back to school gear, clothes & supplies. You plan what healthy thing is going to go in their lunch box, the logistics of getting to and from school, extra curricular activities are due to be signed up for and they want how much money for that lesson!?! You buy that special planner that is designed for moms by moms and you buy the 6 pack of highlighters to color code everyone's schedule. You are on it, your universe will be organized, you've got it under control. Or do you? It isn't long before the new jeans have a whole in the knee, you are late to that expensive lesson and you are throwing fruit snacks in the lunchbox over an apple because you haven't made it to the store yet this week. But God is clothed in splendor and light, (the only whole in his jeans are holy), he rides the wings of the wind therefore never late, his timing is perfect. He brings forth food from the earth and bread that sustains man because only He has what can satisfy our needs. God is Creator and Sustainer of all life. If He can govern the earth and universe as a whole, you can trust and depend on him for your day to day details. The thing on the top of your to-do list should be to turn it all over to God.
Psalm 104 Questions -
1. What do you need that you don't think God will provide?
2. How does nature reassure you that God is providing for your every need?
3. Are your meditations pleasing to Him or are you anxious about everything that needs done? Are you rejoicing in the Lord or worrying?
