I am glad that I don't know the future. I am glad that I know Who
does...and He loves me. He is so good to prepare me for what is to come,
in ways that I am not even aware of. I find peace in knowing that
whatever happens circumstantially, if I am trusting in, relying on, and
clinging to Him...I couldn't be anywhere better.
I do not have strength from God, for things I am not
currently experiencing. I can imagine scenarios, and become very
afraid. But God is not in that imaginary world, He is in reality. I
need to stay there with Him. And when reality is terrifying, He never
leaves me. He holds me.
"fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will
strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous
right hand." (Isaiah 41:10 ESV)
