Yet I'm doing what I should and I need to trust. Tonight I'm feeling a bit of panic, but God is in control and He has a plan. This did not take Him by surprise, because He is the God who is never surprised. I can only give it to Him and trust that He will use this time for eternal good in the lives of those around me. The following verses have become my mantra as I seek to follow HIm.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. I Peter 1:3-7
So the saga continues not with thoughtfully written commentary on time an places in the Holy Land, not with completed projects and an organized house, but with trust in God for strength, provision and His great power in my little corner of the world. And He will be there!
