Before I start my post this week, I would to remind you that my friend Laurie at “Women Taking A Stand” will be hosting Thankful Thursday in the month of March.
For your steadfast love is before my eyes,
and I walk in your faithfulness.
(Psalm 26:3 ESV)
Over and over I see how distressed people are these days. Have you noticed that more and more people are fearful of their future? I often tell my friends that I don’t know where I would be without God in my life.
I know that life is not easy and not everything goes according to plan. Maybe life is not going according to our plans, but I know for certain that God is moving us in the direction of His plan. Paul in his letter to the Philippian church noted:
“Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”
(Philippians 4:11-13 ESV)
Sometimes I look at my situation and forget about God’s faithfulness. But when I look back at my life, I know that He always has been with me; moving me along His plan. Since I have gone through the highs and lows in life, God can use me to encourage others who are on a journey of despair. May I always share with others His faithfulness and love.

Iris

I can relate,Iris. There are times I get down and forget how faithful God has been to me. Then, I think back or God brings back to my memory the things He has done for me and I regain my focus. I love how God reminds us of His faithfulness!! Thank you for sharing and hosting this month!
Yes, He has a plan and purpose! Good reminder. Thank you for being our hostess this month.

Thank you for sharing this reminder today. I too have been hearing fearful words and have to fight not to become fearful. I know God has a plan in place. I do not know the details but He does and that is good because He is the only one capable of keeping track of all the details. I want o walk in faith not in fear.
What a wonderful post. God is so faithful, so true, so kind and loving. I can’t imagine my life without him. It’s a scary thought so I don’t ponder it! I like the comfort of knowing My God is with my always. Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
