Over and over in the Bible we read, “Don’t be afraid” that is because by human standards there are reasons to fear. That’s because the world does not put GOD in the equation.
This morning one on going situation came to mind. It seemed so discouraging, even hopeless. Then I read the word “hope” and my thoughts flew/were directed to (Proverbs 21:1) an old chorus…”all of my hope is in YOU.”
As I was reminded that my hope wasn’t in an answer but in GOD HIMSELF, I was surrounded in peace. Knowing that my GOD is good and wise and everything HE does is right enables to let go of problems for I know that HE never will. By that I mean, HE finishes what HE starts.
Just to be in YOUR Presence, just to walk by YOUR side;
Just to know YOU are with me whatever betides.
Though people are near me, I’m seen as alone.
Yet YOU always are with me wherever I roam.
Just to be in YOUR Presence, just to know YOU are near;
To have YOUR constant attention, YOU quiet my fears.
YOU answer my questions, YOU counsel and guide.
YOU give me direction and stay by my side.
Just to be in YOUR Presence, just to walk by YOUR side
Just to know YOU are with me I’m satisfied. / Sharon
