Wherever I have gone

I have done a fair amount of traveling, especially in my younger days. During that travel, I have seen some things and been in some positions/situations that were uncomfortable. Some even downright scary. Even having said that, though, I know there are others that have been in more harrowing situations than I could ever imagine.

I think about the false nuclear attack that was broadcast in Hawaii. Thankfully, it was erroneous but the fear for those 38 minutes could never be explained. I cannot imagine what I would have felt, as a husband and father, and not being able to truly protect my wife and children. It had to have been very troubling and disturbing.

Today's word is Genesis 35:3b, NLT, which reads, "...GOD Who answered my prayers when I was in distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone."

The one Thing, the one Good Thing, the one Peaceful Thing that I had and have when things are going bad is that GOD is always with me. He is guiding me, instructing me, leading me, nurturing me, and, when necessary, carrying me. We know that with GOD nothing is impossible. We also know that He will never leave us nor forsake us.

The next time you find yourself in a troubling, disturbing, stressful situation, remember that GOD is there with you. You can call on Him and He will hear your prayers. You can seek Him and He will be found. Everything may not turn out the way you want but, you won't go through it alone. I know this because GOD has gone with me wherever I have gone.

Be Blessed,
