i don't know how to feel. too much stuff going on. so confused. feeling overwhelmed by all that is happening around me.
sometimes i don't understand circumstances that God has prepared for us, yet i know God is sovereign, and i feel convicted
in putting my trust in His plan.
there is too much sadness and it makes me tremble, the extent of faith needed at this very moment is severe. this is one of those times that selfishness cannot take any part of our bodies as living sacrifices before the King.
i fear God's wrath.
WHAT THE HECK. talk about God's sovereignty.
"I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you that you fear mortal man, the songs of men, who are but grass, that you forget the Lord your maker, who stretched out the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth, that you live in constant terror every day because of the wrath of the oppressor, who is bent on destruction? For where is the wrath of the oppressor? The cowering prisoners will soon be set free; they will not die in ther dungeon, nor will they lack bread.
For I am the Lord your God,
who churns up the sea so that its waves roar--the Lord Almighty is His name. I have put my words in your mouth and covered you with the shadow of my hand--
I who set the heavens in place, who laid the foundations of the earth, and who say to Zion, "You are my people"
Isaiah 53
