” I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.” Psalm 16:8
” Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me.” Psalm 23:4
” Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.” Psalm 30:5
The journey you and I are on seems like it will never end. Sometimes it seems that our bad times last much longer than our good times. We get anxious and want bad things to go away and good things to happen right now! This, however, is not God’s plan. God’s road map for our lives has already been put into place. As a follower of Jesus, we are given directions as how to proceed and where to go. We are told what to do and how to do it. Every move we make and every decision we make should depend upon instructions from the Lord. God has a plan. You and I are a part of his plan, but to be used successfully, we must not only hear what he tells us, but we must do what he tells us. When we listen to the instructions of the Holy Spirit, the bad things do turn to good things. Our lives become a tool for the Lord and when we do what we are to do we become happier and more successful. Jesus is always with us. He never leaves our side. He walked this earth 2000 years ago and he is beside us today as we walk this earth. Our journey in this world may seem long, but to our God in heaven, it is just a moment in time. He will be coming back soon to take those who are ready, home to be with him. His holy word tells us that he will return in the twinkling of an eye. To us our journey may be long but to God the journey we are on is only a short season. We have work to do, and we must listen and be willing to be a mover and shaker for the Lord. We must be willing to put ourselves out there for Jesus. There should be no holding back because what is on the line for us is eternal life! The season that we consider to be so long is about to come to an end. We need to pray and praise our God at every opportunity. He must be first in our lives and everything else second. He loves us and is our helper, our savior, our forgiver, our healer and our refuge in times of need! Be a Jesus person and not a worldly person! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
