Trusting God

 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” ~Psalm 91:1-2

Changes are happening and uncertainty looms on the horizon.  It makes me uncomfortable, but the one thing I remind myself of is that God is certain.  His promises to never leave me nor forsake me (Hebrews 13:5).  He tells me in Deuteronomy 31:6 to be strong and of good courage.  I don't have to be afraid because He goes with me.  

So whatever may be coming, I can face it because God goes before me. He is working everything out for my good according to His purpose (Romans 8:28).  His purpose might be for me to exercise my mustard seed of faith and to learn to trust completely in Him.  It might be for me to get some more practice in walking by faith and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7).  To learn how to let go and let God.

Let Him be in control because He is the one that sits on the throne(Psalm 47:8).  To have faith and not be moved by circumstances.  To not be anxious, but rather by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving present my request to Him and let the peace of God which surpasses all understanding guard my heart and my mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7).

All I have to do is dwell in the shelter of the Most High, dwell in His presence and soak up His love for me.  Then  rest in His shadow for He is my refuge and my fortress.  He is my God in whom I trust. 

Farther thank You for being my refuge and my hiding place.  Thank You for sheltering me  from storms.  Thank You for holding today and tomorrow in Your capable hands.  When changes come help me to rest in the assurance of You.  In Jesus name.  Amen
