FEAR

Here it is again...a heart stopping fear that something will happen to my precious little baby.
This is NOT the way that Christ intends for us to live...in bondage to the concerns of living on earth.
I do know that in the event of something devastating, that He will be there to hold me, to sustain me, never leaving me. Joy would be restored, life would go on, beauty would come from the ashes...
It is very true that the ONE thing I NEED to survive while I live, I will never lose. That He will never leave us, that He causes all things to work together for good, that he give gladness for mourning...the promise is NOT that nothing bad will happen.
I am ashamed to admit-this Christ Follower is NOT believing the words of her Savior, So today, I place all that at His feet...and trust all that He says He is.
