Whom Shall I Fear?

     We have all at one time or another faced a major change. Sometimes that change is starting a new relationship or adjusting an old one. Sometimes that change is a new job or a new home or a new city.  When major changes come, we react in various ways. A few have welcomed major changes, even facilitated them, but most people are very uncomfortable with change. Many people actively resist change. We stand on the precipous of a new life knowing that regardless of its outcome, whether good or bad, our life will never be the same again. Fish don’t swim backwards.
      Rarely do we consider that the change might be for the best, a change ordained by God himself. In fact, if we are right with God and the change is truly inevitable, it is most certainly for the best. Every night we have prayed sincerely for God’s perfect will, for peace, and for a productive ministry. Perhaps the change is the answer to those prayers.
      In all things, we must remember to whom we belong (if we truly do belong to Him). If we submit ourselves to Him and to His will, we can rest assured that we are living the best possible life.

      Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.”
