Even the most dedicated Christian women may find her courage tested by the inevitable disappointments and tragedies of life. After all, we live in a world filled with uncertainty, hardship, sickness, and danger. Old Man Trouble, it seems, is never too far from the front door.
When we focus upon our fears and our doubts, we may find many reasons to lie awake and fret about the uncertainties of the coming day. A better strategy, of course, is to focus not upon our fears, but instead upon our God.
God is as near as your next breath, and He is in control. He offers salvation to all His children, including you. God is your shield and your strength; you are His forever. So don't focus your thoughts upon the fears of the day. Instead, trust God's plan and His eternal love for you. And remember: whatever the size of your challenge, God is bigger.
Psalm 31:24
Be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the Lord.
