Because of this--the faithfulness of God--for all my faithless striving, I feel compelled to trust Him more. Reflecting on His goodness in the past; though, I didn't know where things were going at the time, I consider the present with its own set of uncertainties and know I can and should trust Him with this too. Infinite need can only be met by an infinite God.

I'm happy to hear things are falling into place, Matt. Praise God (from whom all blessings flow). :)
