My mind will often spin in the worries of if “this” happens “that” means “this” will happen. Or , if “that” happens, “this” will happen. And all the “this” and “that” will create problems for every “this” and “that” I can imagine. Ack!

I need to remember for every “this” and every “that,” God is always loving, always good, always in control, nothing is impossible for God, and all things work for the good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.

Therefore, when the “this” or “that” comes to mind, I need to put God in the statement. Put God in whatever scenario, every worry, every concern I have, and rest and trust that God is boundless and timeless.

God is the great I AM. There is no “this” or “that” too big for God to handle. He will be with us and help us through whatever “this” or “that” we face. And, for those who believe and trust in His Son, Jesus Christ, for salvation, an amazing, grace-filled, joyful eternal happy-ever-after is coming.

“Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9, NKJV). “For this is God, our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death” (Psalm 48:14, NKJV).

“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith” (1 John 5:4, NKJV).

For, “we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28, NKJV).
