My trust is in Him!
What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee, In God I will praise his word, In God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me. Psalm 56:3-4
Many times if someone asks me what I am afraid of, I will confidently say nothing. However, in the wake of the turmoil things are in my heart. Our fears are often encompassed by the what ifs that fill our thoughts. For me, the what ifs have filled my mind for days.
What if I never get to see my friends again? What if the bills dont get paid on time? What if I do not get to do what I want to do today? What if our trips to visit one another are over? And then they get worse. What if I lose a friend in this chaos? What if I do not ever hear from my friends again?
In the depth of my heart, I am afraid of losing those that are close to me.
God is the only One that we can put our trusts in. I do not know what tomorrow holds for anyone. I do not know how long the chaos and mind battles will last or how long it will be until things are normal again. Only He knows.
The truth is: my friends are my friends and just because I might not hear from them on a minute by minute basis that doesn't mean they are no longer my friends. That does not change the fact that; God is still God. I may not know but He does and it is in Him and Him alone I put my trust.
What fears are you facing today? What is causing you to lose sleep at night or to walk through your day with anxiety? What are the what ifs that are replaying in your head? Just as God is in control and knows what is happening, He knows what is talking place in your life and your heart.
Friends, He is trustworthy. In the midst of your fears, turn to Your Father.
