Comforting Thought

Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.
Deuteronomy 31:8 
 
I've noticed that many of us seem to be fearful of what might happen or discouraged by the way things are going.  Yes, I am speaking to my own mind as well.  We look all that's going on in this world and...fear and discouragement set in. Once they set in, it's difficult to get evict them, at least it is for me.
 
A friend of mine told me, "Above the storms, the sun still shines."  THAT reminded me that no matter what my eyes may see, no matter what my mind may think, God is in control!  Nothing happens that can ever defeat His plans for us.  No one can change His plans for us.  When I look at all that is going on in this world, that is the time to pray! 
 
"Abba, I don't understand, but that's not my job.  Help me trust YOU!  Let my eyes see YOU!  Let my mind focus on YOU! Let my spirit be filled with YOU and let me celebrate because YOU are God!"
