\u201cIf you look at the world, you\u2019ll be distressed. If you look within, you\u2019ll be depressed. But if you look at Christ, you\u2019ll be at rest.\u201d<\/span> –\u00a0<\/em>Corrie ten Boom<\/p>\n

These are precious words I seem to forget when a day turns all higgledy-piggledy. <\/em>” Sooner or later I’m reminded, He’s with me<\/em>… even in this.<\/p>\n

Car trouble, unexpected bills, dying refrigerators. These don’t hold a candle to someone’s loss of hope… loss of direction… loss of faith… those are the biggest and hardest to wade through. No quick fix, no easy words.<\/p>\n

I had such a day yesterday, and I felt shaken, heartsick. Running to my closet<\/em>\u00a0and falling on my knees, I told God everything He already knew. Asking Him to intervene. I was reminded in a very tangible way, only a short time later, that He heard me, He was all over it, and on the job.<\/p>\n

Hope was not<\/em> lost. I could rest because the battle wasn’t mine but His. Oh what a great -big -glorious God I serve! He cares about my cares and listens to all my concerns – reaching right in and, shedding light on my shaken heart.<\/p>\n

Silly me- Don’t trust in what you see, trust the One who brought you a Savior. Who always has all the answers. Stand on the Solid Rock!<\/em><\/p>\n
