Trusting God More!

I am back! I have returned from 6 months in the Middle East! It was an amazing experience and there is so much that needs to be written about!
In the midst of a return to civilization and this world (it really is like living on another planet!) , there have been some unexpected challenges. The organization that I worked for provides for some of the costs associated with "re-entry". I stored my car, and so it needed work to get it back on the road. Except mine was more than 5 times the amount that was allocated. I can only assume that they looked at the 'usual' costs and found out the average costs of getting a car road worthy again. That was, to say the least, upsetting, then within 2 DAYS, I have had another circumstance with the car that will be another large chunk of money!
As I drove away from the garage after hearing yet another $800 quote for something that NEEDS to be repaired so that I can renew my license (So it's not even optional!), I was in tears, and very angry. I began to cry out to God. "Why is this happening?" "You are supposed to protect my finances" and "I am just trying to be a good steward with what You provided and this stuff is outside my control to balance!" It was just a moment of pure frustration.
As I spent time with a friend and was telling her the story, she is a newer Christian and I was trying to "spin" it so that God would be given the glory, even though I didn't feel that way, I felt like I could mentor her a bit in the thought process. As I did, though, the things I was saying about what the Truth is began to work on my heart.
I realized that this circumstance is not a surprise to God. He knew it was going to happen. He knows the future, my job situation, and my bank balance, He holds it all in His hands and He has the responsibility to provide.
While I was away, there were no money challenges, I got paid VERY well, and where I was living everything was taken care of. No need to trust God for the moment by moment realities of expensive finances. Having that as a non-stressor, I want to live like that again. I want to walk through everyday knowing that Someone has a plan for provision. So I have to trust God more!
