"When I fight I'll fight on my knees With my hands lifted high. Oh God the battle belongs to You."
If that isn't a hard truth learned, and still learning. But truly, there is no other way. We can kick and scream, but it doesn't change one thing in our story. There will be many different seasons in our lives. Some that we love. Some that come with a big, WHY GOD! And that's ok. He understands all our fears. Lay them at His feet. Talk to Him about them. Be totally open. He knows it anyway. So you might as well tell Him. He will begin to shine in the shadows of them. Ecclesiasties 7:14." When times are good, be happy, but when times are bad, consider, God has made the one as well as the other."
God allows both good times and bad times to come to everyone. He blends them in our lives in such a way that we can't predict the future or count on human wisdom and power. He tells us in Psalm 46, "Be still, and know that I am God." The hardest part is being still.
Through all the seasons, times of joy, times of fear, times of sorrow, in the waiting, one thing for sure is, He is with us. His presence is within, and all around us. The more we talk to Him, open about everything, giving Him thanks for being with us in that season, we begin to feel that wonderful promise. Psalm 46 "God is our refuge and strength, an EVER PRESENT help in times of trouble..... The Lord Almighty is with us, the God of Jacob is our fortress."
For His Glory
