“I’m leaving you well and whole. That’s my parting gift to you. Peace. I don’t leave you the way you’re used to being left—feeling abandoned, bereft. So don’t be upset. Don’t be distraught.” – John 14:27
“Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns.” “I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am.” – Philippians 4:6,13
“Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! Your body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life!” – Proverbs 3: 5-8
God’s Word is full of wonderful promises! Psalm 91:13 is another promise! “Of one thing you can be very sure: if you trust in the Lord and rely on His help every day, not even the greatest dangers in life will ever get you down. With the Lord’s help, you will overcome every difficulty that overcomes you.”
As a child of God, we are not delivered from storms in our lives, but we know that God enables us to handle any situation, no matter how dark and frightening the circumstances may seem. “The Lord himself says, ‘Anyone who loves me, I will deliver from any danger.’ I will protect him because he trusts me. When he asks me for help, I will help him: I will assist him in any crisis.” Psalm 91:14-15.
Isn’t that great! God is so faithful!
