I struggled this past week with MORE FEARS of what “might” happen, tired and exhausted in this seven year season of house remodels, angry (fear-full) that I can’t control my environment and keep everything nice and in order, and then God uses a devotional passage from Jesus Calling, by Sarah Young, to drive home the point of PEACE in His constant presence.
God has been shaking everything that can be shaken in the foundation of my life that doesn’t match up with His character, and confidence and TRUST in Him, rather than relying in myself and my own understanding.
The picture above is the last illustration in my book, Darkness & Light – The Little Girl in Pink (A Journey from Fear to Faith), and depicts Psalm 73:23 (& found elsewhere in the Bible).
God gave me the vision of this picture in 2002, before I had the revelation of His constant nearness in my life. And in the past few months, The Father has been reminding me over and over of His control when I trust Him, using this illustration from years ago!
Thank you, Jesus, for guiding my steps by Your Holy Spirit, even when I struggle to believe. You hold my hand and lead me through the darkness of this life, bringing me into the fullness of your Truth and Light! I am forever greatful.
