This particular thought is
on my mind because of a woman from church who came up to me, hugged me, and
told me to never forget that "Dumnezeu este cu tine" (God is
with you). She said to never fear or doubt God because He will be with
me. We tend to create so many unnecessary and unhealthy fears in our
life. Generally, the root of our fears is the unknown, more specifically
the way we perceive the unknown. Think about it. Any future
plans/unknowns you are worried about? Jobs? Family? Money? I could go on and
on. These fears and worries stem from not knowing what will happen.
However, our reaction to
the unknown defines our belief and behavior. If we have unknowns which cause fear and worry we are
actually saying that we have a powerless and unloving God whom we cannot trust. If we have
unknowns and remember that God is with us, we are revived, strengthened, and
have peace.
For me, a huge unknown
begins in 5 hours, where I will encounter new countries, cultures, languages,
religions and food :) I have peace in my heart though because of what I
know to be true; that is that I serve the Creator of the Universe,
the Almighty, All-powerful, All-Knowing, and loving God. Why should I
worry or fear? There is no reason to fear because He has overcome the world,
and He has promised to be with his children. Thank you Jesus!
So as you go throughout
your day today, keep your head up and remember God is with you when you follow
His ways, and you are victorious because of Him!
Alright, time for some
sleep or nap, whichever one it technically is at this point :) Au revoir...
Be Blessed!
Isaiah 41:12
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am
your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my
righteous right hand.
