Today I will:
“We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to His purpose” Romans 8:28 (NIV)
It seems human nature to panic. Who doesn't sometimes expect the worst or keep expectations at a minimum? We all lie awake at night dwelling on the "what if's?" and the "how so's" or "how in the world's?" and sometimes the "God help me's."
Often it is all we can do to remember that the steps of God's children are ordered by Him-that God is working the good in every situation on behalf of those who love Him. We don't need to be anxious because we know that God is watching over us carefully and affectionately. We can let go of our concerns about how quickly we are reaching our destination and simply enjoy the journey.
If we are truly trusting in God, it is up to us to surrender control and let God carry us over life's rapids and rough places. Resting in Him can be the most difficult challenge. Determine to let the peace of God rule in your heart and mind. Purpose to rest in God's perfect peace.
