Courage

Deuteronomy 31:7
7 Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the presence of all Israel, "Be strong and courageous, for you must go with this people into the land that the LORD swore to their forefathers to give them, and you must divide it among them as their inheritance.

As the stormy winds of life threaten to shake our faith; as we stand in the midst of our trials without clear direction, God rises up the Joshua in us and commands us to move. In His infinite love, He rescues us from the pit of our situation and lifting our soul inspires us to keep walking. It’s a promise. A promise that was made long ago...
Sometimes we don’t know why we’re going through certain things…we just know we are walking in the right direction…in God’s direction. We can’t see right or left, past or future, but at least we SEE now. The darkness has been lifted and we’re free to move. We might not know exactly were we’re going, but we know who’s with us. We know it because of the peace inside. There’s nothing like it. Though the journey home may last a lifetime...He’s with us, and that’s all we need to know.
Yesterday I took my baby niece to the park. There, most of the kids were way bigger than her. They were running and screaming, sharing the same space and toys. She didn’t even notice danger...all she knew was that I was there...and that was all she needed to know. I didn’t left her one millisecond. She knew she could TRUST me to take good care of her because she knows how much I love her. I spent the afternoon protecting her; she had a blast. I firmly believe that’s what Jesus meant when He talked about having the FAITH of a child. It is an absolute, nothing wavering, all believing faith.
Whatever you situation is, my brother or sister, I pray that you’ll know He’s here. That’s all you need.

In His Light,

Janet.
