But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you. -Psalms 56:3
A little while back, I was feeling a wave of fear and I told a woman who use to be a neighbor of mine.
In response, she told me to pray and ask about it. Then, wait for an answer.
So, I did. I prayed to the Lord that night, expressing my concern and any possible reason in particular for why I was experiencing this stream of fear.
When I awoke the next morning, I had initially forgot about the prayer and reply I had requested. Once I remembered, an answer had actually come into my mind. A voice spoke to me in my thoughts and said, “Have a little bit more faith in God”.
There it was. Plain and simple for my specific situation.
All of us are different, all going through our various seasons of life. While we experience these shifts in motion and change, we may also encounter a touch of fear or uncertainty. It is understandable, especially not knowing where our season may be weathering to, but the most important thing for us to know is that God is the one controlling the environment.
He orders the summer, the fall, the winter, and the spring. He’ll keep us warm when it’s cold. And he’ll keep us comfortable when things get too hot for us to handle.
God is there, even when he seems far away. He just wants us to have the faith to trust him when we can’t see past the fog.
Let God be the eyes we view our circumstances with as he already knows what’s upon and ahead, he will lead us through.
For we live by believing and not by seeing. -2 Corinthians 5:7
