Trust God where you cannot trace him.
What time I am afraid, I will trust thee. Psalm 56 verse 3
Once we make that pledge, we need to be all in, with no turning back, no doubts. Trust God where you cannot trace him.
There is joy in heaven over one sinner who repents
In the weakest of moments I look away, down instead of up, and see nothing.
If there is a tiny speck of light, I don’t see it because I look at my circumstances and their harsh limitations.
How cruel to be born, grow, gain, lose, and then die, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
How evil it is to despair. So easy it is to sink into the dark corners of the mind, to give into a depression where the soul is robbed of faith, and the heart becomes too afraid to believe.
It is a vengeful spirit that must not exist.
It is a evil that must never win.
The battle belongs to God.
He fights for us and will never fail.
Within the presence of God, there is peace, rest, joy, and love:
A love which dispels all fears. A love which brightens even the darkest nights with strength and with hope.
There is joy in heaven over one sinner who repents. Luke 15 verse 7
There is joy in knowing Jesus.
The Lord is my life and my salvation.
He gives, and He takes away; so deep is His love.
Who knows the mind of the Lord, and who can understand His ways?
His ways are not my ways neither are His thoughts my thoughts.
Nothing escapes His eyes when they are fixed solely on His children.
He is my light as I walk through the valley, scale mountains, weather storms, and descend into pits.
He is my guide and my savior.
I am no longer afraid of the Dark.
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27 verse 1
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12
He is your salvation.
Come to Jesus with all your burdens, lay them before Him, and confess your sins. Ask Him to come into your heart, and be the Lord of your life. He will give you joy, peace, and freedom in your soul like never before.
There is joy in knowing Jesus.
when you follow the Word of God and look to Jesus, his only begotten Son, you learn life is worth living.
When you listen to the noise surrounding your life, you hear many voices.
Some voices speak words of comfort and peace.
Where others utter words that are sad, and dark, words that are not edifying but disturbing and destructive. These are the loudest and most persistent because they bring along with their burdens of fear and torment.
Finally, there are voices of truth. Truth is a funny thing. It gives freedom in the face of guilt. It gives transparency when there is no vision, yet truth can be dark. Dark only because it shines a light in areas you strive to keep hidden.
These are the voices that should be heard.
Although their sting can be painful, their resolve is sure and honest.
As you listen to those words of truth, you begin to hear the voice of the Lord in a sea of noise. By His words of truth, you become unshaken and not stirred by the changing matters of this life. When you follow the Word of God and look to Jesus, his only begotten Son, you learn life is worth living.
He will make a way where there is no way.
When you have a clean heart before God and do what is right by walking in all His ways, there will be nothing to fear when hardships come.
He promised to guide your steps.
He will make a way where there is no way.
He will provide for your every need because you trust in Him.
For then shalt thou lift up they face without spot yea, thou shalt be steadfast, and shalt not fear because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away. Job 11: 15, 16

Reference: 2 Chronicles 20 verse 15.
We battle with so many things, also sometimes people and their opinions. We must remember nothing is too much or too hard for the Lord to handle. We have a heavenly Father who will move heaven and earth for us. It is God who will fight for us. When we are hurt in mind, body or spirit He will defend us.
The Battle is God’s.
Our God is always victorious.
It isn’t enough to say it but, you have to believe it and walk in it as if it were so.
Then will your ways be perfect and successful before God.
And Moses said unto the people, Fear not for God is come to prove you, and that his fear maybe before your faces that ye sin not. Exodus 20:20
Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord
When God comes through for you, His work is forever.
The power of the oppressor,
The schemes of the browbeater are nothing to Him
And once broken by Him, they will never rise again.
Don’t be afraid.
With God at your side,
Stand and see what He can do for you when you leave it all up to Him.
And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will shew to you today for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more forever. Exodus 14: 13
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding
Take a breath and exhale,
knowing there is a peace that goes beyond all reasoning.
It is a peace that settles the mind and the heart,
Where all fear is gone, worry disappears, and anger fades.
God knows everything.
Even every hair on our head has a number.
So, take it easy and have no worries about your tomorrow,
Because God takes care of everything.
