The God Perspective
As you know I am moving so I’ve been packing and planning like a wild thing. But sitting here thinking and reflecting on the events of next week I looked at my dog and thought about how dramatically the lives of my pets are going to change. They are aware that something is happening but have no idea what it is.
I can see the whole picture. I know what is going to happen on Monday. I know where the cats are going and where the dogs are going. I know it is going to stress them and they are not going to be happy. But I also know that I will continue to love them and take care of them and that over a period of time they will settle down and life will be fine again.
This is called the God perspective. God knows what is going to take place in the days ahead where your life is concerned. He can see the things that are going to come and challenge you. He knows what will please you and what won’t. He knows what the changes will be but also knows that He will never stop loving you and will continue to support you. Then, over the course of time all will settle down and be well again.
I don’t know what tomorrow holds for you. I don’t know if it is going to be a whirlwind of glory or a raging stormy sea, but whichever it is know this, He is present in both. One is directed by Him and is glorious, the other is directed from the forces of this world. The whirlwind of His glory will lift you up, sweep you off your feet and His presence will be intoxicating. The raging stormy sea may be frightening but that’s where He comes alongside you and teaches you how to rule over the storm.
The Lord has you in the palm of His hand and will never let you go so stop worrying and stressing because you are heading for a glorious and wonderful end. He is the Author and the Finisher of your faith so relax and trust Him, He will not let you down.
Scripture references: Isaiah 46:10; James 1:12; Hebrews 12:12
