Perfect Peace

It's been a while since I have plugged away at writing and while I want to be hard on myself I am reminded that there is a season for everything.... It is summer for our house which means no home school for 10 weeks :-) which means more lazy days, more bible studies, more disciple ships, more pool days, more beach days, more workouts and more writing.

I don't think we ever stop learning to trust God. In fact our entire relationship with Him is based off of trust. Have you ever actually physically seen Jesus. I mean I get we see Him in everything and through people but I have never seen Him in physical form. Yet we trust Him. Most think we are crazy for believing something we haven't seen but Jesus says different. He says "you believe because you have seen me but blessed are those who believe without seeing me." John 20:29

I truly believe that there is a strengthening in our relationship with Christ Every time we trust Him without seeing the outcome.

Oh my gosh friends it's hard. It's scary and frightening at times but if there is anything that we can put our trust in it's God. I am a control freak, I am bossy and not being the driver of my car is hard. But being in this relationship with Christ for just about 8 years I have learned that Every time I make God sit in the back seat I always crash!

Each opportunity He gives us to trust Him is a blessing. It's a way to cast down all our fears of the unknown and reflect Every time He has been faithful and taken care of us.

One thing I say though is keep in communication with God. Sometimes our heartache can be us getting out of the car and running in front of God because we are trying to get to the next destination faster then His perfect plan is designed. All that will happen is us either getting hurt or growing weary and tired. So ask God like Simon Peter did. Say "God is that you" if God says yes then it doesn't matter how scary the surrounding can be because in His perfect will you can't be destroyed.

Peter walked on water and did something no man has ever done or can do alone because He kept His eyes on Jesus.

So friend don't be afraid of what's to come. Be in a right relationship with Jesus and trust that He will get you where you need to be at His perfect timing and will.

There is such a peace in God's will

You will keep in perfect peace those who trust in you and those whose eyes are fixed on you. Trust in the Lord always for the Lord God is the eternal rock. Isaiah 26:3-4
