The Lord himself goes before you
and will be with you;
he will never leave you
nor forsake you.
Do not be afraid;
do not be discouraged.”
~Deuteronomy 31:8
Hello.
It is January 1, 2020.
Who knew we’d make it this far?
Who knew our heart
would still be beating this long?
God.
God did.
And for that reason we rest.
And for that reason we trust.
And for that reason we unclench our fists
and let go of control.
(What are we trying to control anyway…?)
During the past 365 days of 2019
How Many Times
did we get our own heart to beat?
Zero.
We did absolutely nothing to cause it to beat…
Yet here we are.
Here we are.
God has already gone before us
into 2020
and prepared our days.
He has prepared our moments
He has prepared our lives.
He took care of us yesterday
He will take care of us today
He will take care of us tomorrow.
So do not fear.
One of His Names is Jehovah El Roi,
The God Who Sees Me…..
even me.
He is that Big.
He is that Good.
Hello New Year.
Hello 2020.
I need not fear.
God Himself has gone before me.
Sigh…..
(Thank You Precious LORD)
