Most people fear uncertainty, change, the unknown. Not me. Over the past few weeks I’ve been in total peace knowing God will take care of me and my family, working everything out just as it should be. And He was faithful of course, providing just what we needed, not in abundance, but all we needed. And now, now that there is more certainty and I know I have a pretty decent job that has the potential to offer us much more, now I feel worried.

My entire life has been full of failure and let-downs, not living up to whatever it is I’ve taken on. Even though I know the skills and talents I have been given I fear that same failure. How is it that I can take rest during the hardest times, and worry when things are looking up? Perhaps there’s the knowledge that I now must step up to the challenge and play the game, something that’s been a long time coming I suppose, but something I’m not too familiar with.

"God, stay close and be my guide and strength. You carry us through the hard times; now walk me through the good."
