I watch the news just like everybody else, even after my love specifically told me not to, i do. Its in the papers as well, its all around us. I try not to think about the worst of things, because after all, if we give it all to the Lord, he will get us through. Worrying is human nature and it is something that we do on a regular basis... but did you know that we were never meant to worry about anything? Thats what putting your faith in the Lord is about, letting him take the wheel and take control of our lives, because we cannot do this alone. The world right now is a scary place, and the Bible talks about the end of days and what the world will be like when that time comes, but yet we are not to worry. If my mamaw were here today, i know that she would tell me that we are in those days, wars amongst nations, pursecution of Christians, sin and evil everywhere, and our men and women are now over in some of the biggest points of violence on earth, but yet we are not to worry. God is STILL in control, and maybe we have tried to take the wheel back and drive our own way, but you cant. When jonathan comes home, it will be a blessing to my family, my life, and my soul. i sit up at night and WORRY about if he is okay, and if he will even come home at all. But i have to keep telling myself, just dont worry, God is in control. My point tonight is this..... LET GOD TAKE CONTROL... if we let Him comfort our hearts, we will know that no matter what the best thing, the right thing, will happen and we can take comfort in that. Thanks for all the support the last few months, i find it amazing that God listens to every prayer, and knows all their names and who they are meant to be. He will bring us through, and theres nothing that the evil ways of this world can do to change that....
let me leave you with a favorite, that calms my worry right on down...
Psalm 55:22 Cast your burden on the LORD, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.
Amen to that..... love you all so very much...
