Isaiah 43:19 See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness….
Precious friend, I know you are afraid. You cannot conceive of a way out of this wilderness surrounding you. Please remember that God knows you intimately. He loves you and yours more than you can fathom. He is already at work, even if you can’t yet perceive it. He’s making a way for you through this situation. Trust His love, dear one. Trust His goodness. Trust His mercy.
Isaiah 42:16a I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them….
Precious friend, If you are anything like me, you know how this situation “should” work out. But please be mindful of the fact that His thoughts and His ways are not like ours. He loves you infinitely. Trust that His way will reflect that love, even if you can’t understand it.
Isaiah 42:16b …I will turn darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth…
Lord, Thank You for this day, for Your promise to always be with us, for making a way through this wilderness, even if we can’t yet perceive it. Thank You for the precious soul reading today’s reflection. Be with Your beloved child. Give this dear one strength, hope, and courage, regardless of the burdens being shouldered. Help us all to trust and not to fear. Draw us all closer to You. Amen.
Isaiah 42:16c …These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.
Have a blessed day.
My faith, my life, my teaching–it's all a work in progress.
