There is no
fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.
1 John 4:18, ESV
1 John 4:18, ESV
Loving and trusting God is essential in these uncertain times. We need not fear. The God
who created heaven and earth is still in control. He has not abandoned us, but
stands ready to help.
The Lord watches over you —
the Lord is your shade at your right
hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all harm —
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and
going
both now and forevermore.
Psalm 121:5-8, NIV
We are in the Lord's hands, regardless of the situation. Before we were even born, God appointed the length of our days. He knows every single detail about us.
Your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one
of them came to be.
Psalm 139:16,
NIV
To trust in God’s
goodness is to rest in His love, secure in the knowledge He is by our side. He loves us, guides us, and upholds us through all the pain and loss of this life. We may safely put our trust Him as He works in and through circumstances to strengthen and shape us.
When we are
tempted to fear or react negatively during these trying times, we need only to pause, look up, worship and adore our Sustainer Creator; then we will feel the peace that passes all understanding and rest content and secure as a
sleeping baby in their mother’s arms. He is with us.
Do not
tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
Joshua 1:9, NASB
