I have not written in a while it seems…
It is hard to juggle everything daily sometimes, sometimes my list is long and my time is short.
Yesterday at church the message was one that God has used to tie back into so many things that I have been studying as of late. I studied in Proverbs about this woman that all Christian woman desperately try to be, a lot of times as Christians woman there is a verse or two that we feel like are hang ups; ones that we will NEVER be able to do…
Here is my hang up…”She laughs at things to come…” (ESV)…. “She shall rejoice in time to come…” (NKJV)
I have spent a lot of time wishing and wanting to be able to have that attribute…but I struggle with fear and unknown things. How can I laugh and rejoice when I am afraid. God spoke truth to me through the message yesterday and this study from last week. God does not call us to fear but to strength and power, and we don’t have to be afraid because we have hope. This precious woman was able to laugh and rejoice at things to come because she was confident in her mighty God and she was confident in her HOPE!
There is no doubt that this world is messy but we can be confident in God because we have hope. Our strength and peace are found in Him. God does not cause us to fear only Satan does that, and fear brings confusion and confusion leaves us in a mess. We don’t have to be confused we can be confident…Confident in our mighty God, and knowing that this…right now is temporary.
Some of your thoughts were also echoed in my mind yesterday too, Michelle. Thank you for sharing Hope and encouragement with all who read your article. jk
