We are exactly where GOD wants us. The place we live, the vehicle we drive, the place we work, the financial situation we are in.. We are right where He wants us. So relax! The feelings of worry and fear will not help us through.. patient faith in our Good Lord will get us through. Worry and fear are tools of the devil. They will cause us to react poorly and compound the problems. Instead let us do good, be good and allow GOD to lead the charge. The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; He delivers them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. A righteous man may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all; He protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. - Ps 34:17-20 So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless. - Ecc 11:10 Nothing happens that GOD does not allow. There are different types of troubles and different reasons for troubles. We can not understand the reason for the affliction so we lose faith and become anxious & worried. Isa 55:8-9 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." GOD may be teaching us humility, He may be building our faith in Him, He may be protecting us from something unbeknownst to ourselves.... no matter the reason, GOD knows why. His way is the Perfect & Blessed Way. We only need to be faithful and continue to do what is right. Ps 94:1115 The LORD knows the thoughts of man; He knows that they are futile. Blessed is the man you discipline, O LORD, the man you teach from your law; you grant him relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked. For the LORD will not reject His people; He will never forsake his inheritance. Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it. Mt 6:25-34 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
