Not a chorus of paragraphs do I write this week. Instead, I feel led to share but a short page — with hopes it leads you, yourself, to compose and ponder your own thoughts.
How often, we all look into the mirror of the past. We long for what used to be. Desiring a return to normalcy and a safer world, most often, circulate nostalgia throughout our blood and bones. But we can’t go back. We must go forward. However, blessings of yesteryear can (and must) pave the way to the future and purpose God created each of us to fill and fulfill.
Gazing into the window of the future, there are so many hazy images. Minds calculate which are to become fact. Hearts wonder will love overcome hate. Souls understand, no matter what, destiny remains heaven bound.
Our humanity cannot foretell the future. Christian security is rooted in believing God does know all that lies ahead. Our Heavenly Father holds all answers and will solve our questions when He deems the moment is at hand. Till then, beneath our feet is the quest to walk the path and climb the mountains God allows before us. In our hands rests God’s charge of turning, re-turning and returning to, the pages of His Word to seek and find His guiding wisdom for ALL times. Within our hearts and souls are rooted the love and hope to follow faithfully wherever God leads.
Is our future really so uncertain? Or is it fully affirmed to be guided and guarded by the One Power who controls all, conquers all and has (and will) never be defeated?
Let us not fear evil destruction but safely rest in Almighty Power and Resurrection.
