Deuteronomy 31:8\u00a0<\/b>\u2013\u00a0The\u00a0Lord\u00a0himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Matthew 28:20b<\/b>\u00a0– \u2026<\/span>and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.<\/i><\/p>\n

Isaiah 41:10<\/b>\u00a0–\u00a0<\/span>“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”<\/i><\/p>\n

Zephaniah 3:17<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>– \u00a0“The Lord your God is in your midst, a\u00a0mighty\u00a0one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.”<\/i><\/p>\n

God has told us in His Word, and He has shown us, fullness of love.\u00a0 He declares to us through His Word that He will never leave us or forsake us.\u00a0 We are His, He knows what we need and His eyes and His love are on us at all times.\u00a0 He will provide for our needs (Philippians 4:19<\/b>\u00a0\u201cAnd my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.\u201d<\/i>).\u00a0 Jesus said\u00a0<\/span>\u201c\u2026your Father knows what you need before you ask him.\u201d<\/i>\u00a0 (Matthew 6:8b<\/b>)\u00a0 In\u00a0Matthew 6:26<\/b>\u00a0Jesus, speaking of God\u2019s love for us and how He will provide for us said\u00a0\u201cLook 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?\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

God has and is daily expressing His love to us.\u00a0 He cares for us.\u00a0 He loves us.\u00a0 He never forgets us.\u00a0 There is never a time His eyes are not filled with love and looking upon us.\u00a0 He exults over His children.\u00a0 God loves us.\u00a0 He has willed that He will love us and be faithful to us and nothing can cause Him to not love us (Romans 8:38-39<\/b>).\u00a0 Family, we live in His perfect will.\u00a0 Is that okay with us?\u00a0 Is it okay through trials and through times of comfort and ease?\u00a0 Family, how do we view trials?\u00a0 Peace is ours according to the perspective we choose to have.\u00a0 If we believe God, then we will have peace at all times.\u00a0 If we truly believe that in every circumstance, if we give no room for doubt of God, then peace is ours at all times and for eternity. No ifs or buts, this is absolutely true.\u00a0 Nobody I know has perfected this, least of all me, but still God\u2019s Word declares this to be true if we look at everything through faith in God.\u00a0 Jesus says to us when we are sick \u201ctrust me.\u201d\u00a0 Jesus says to us when we are unemployed \u201ctrust me.\u201d\u00a0 Jesus says to us when we are being persecuted \u201ctrust me.\u201d\u00a0 Jesus says to us when we are broken hearted \u201ctrust me.\u201d\u00a0 Jesus says to us\u00a0\u201cCome to me,\u00a0all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.\u00a029\u00a0Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,\u00a0for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.\u00a030\u00a0For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.\u201d<\/i>\u00a0 (Matthew 11:28-30<\/b>).\u00a0 The rest for our souls comes as we trust in Him in all circumstances and at all times.\u00a0 At times I fall so short of this, but when I do He never fails to put peace deep within, even in my soul.\u00a0 There are no exceptions to this.\u00a0 Trust Go!\u00a0 Take life day by day and trust Him.\u00a0 Take life hour by hour and trust Him.\u00a0 Take life minute by minute and trust Him.\u00a0 And Family, yes, sometimes we need to take life second by second and trust Him.\u00a0 The seconds will become minutes, the minutes hours, the hours days, and the days the rest of life and if we have trained ourselves to look at God, and to Him, and not at the circumstances of life, we will find that our lives have been lived in peace.\u00a0 Praise God who loves us and always faithful to us.\u00a0 He is faithful not out of discipline, it is just His very nature! (2 Timothy 2:13<\/b>).\u00a0 Yes, He is faithful.\u00a0 He loves us.\u00a0 Trust God with all of life\u2019s circumstances and peace, that transcends natural thinking, will always be ours. \u00a0Family celebrate and always keep our God in our minds.\u00a0 Yes, we can!\u00a0 \u00a0Always and forever praise the Lord!<\/p>\n

Sing and dance to God!<\/p>\n
