We live in uncertain times. There are plenty of anxious moments to go around. Fear of the unknown runs rampant.
The questions of daily life can loom large, leaving us wondering what tomorrow will hold?
Most of us, unless you are the daredevil, fly by the seat of your pants type, like some security.
We like to know there is some stability in this ever changing world we live in…
When desperation drives us to our knees…
When the hurting parts of life seem to painful to bear…
We want to not fear what tomorrow holds.
And The Word is strong and true…it leaps, alive, off the page.
Fear can be replaced with courage. Anxiousness can be replaced with calm assurance.
Not to worry about the future…
God is already there.
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:6 NKJV
When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me? Psalm 56:3-4 NIV
