Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” Isaiah 43:18-19 NIV
As the Lord continues sweeping through the earth let us remember that he is doing something new. Don't you perceive it? He will give us what we need as he goes about his reconstruction process. Don’t give up on him during and amidst uncertainty. He’s gonna work it altogether for our good and his good pleasure. But give him time to work it out-stay flexible. Especially when you can’t see how or what he’s doing. Remember that God is the chief architect of the entire universe and your life-and he knows what he’s doing. We don’t have to figure it all out but we are commanded to trust him with our WHOLE HEART.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path.” Proverbs 3:5-8
DON’T GET STUCK-ADAPT Hang in there beloved. God knows where he’s going even when you can’t see, and he is trustworthy. We all have testimonies of his saving grace and mercy. He has proven himself faithful-so stay flexible. Don’t get bent out of shape when it doesn’t go the way you thought it would. He’s working it all out for your good. But when things are changing and they will continue changing we must be people who know how to adapt in a changing world. We are survivors because we have the life of God‘s Spirit within us and he will help us adapt and be resilient as the world around us changes. Stay flexible.
I truly believe we are about to see his goodness and mercy but it may not come packaged like we thought. Keep your eyes on Jesus dear ones and keep looking for him at every turn and on every horizon because he is where we are going. He is always where we are going, and he’s always on time.
Let me end by saying this-Keep following and trusting him even when you can’t see where he’s leading you. He promised that he would never leave us or forsake us; and he is present to lead and guide us by his Spirit -as we place our hope, trust and confidence in him.
Praying for you,
Dana
