A wise man once said "Take your circumstances and God's Character and twist them together"
And when things are going great it is easy to do. But when things are a mess and you are tired of cleaning it up. You seem to forget or think your circumstance are to big for God's Character to cover. Was His Character not big enough to cover Jacob, Abraham or David? What about Ruth, Peter or Paul? Or Jesus. Who was God's Character living, dying and raised. Raised! No mis-placed body, No "He just walked away". RAISED. Was dead.. NOW Alive.
And so my circumstances in comparison are a bit smaller. And yet they're not. Not to Him. His Daughter needs protection and His Character is all over it.
He is My Shield
He is My Refuge
He is Gracious
He is ever-present even when I forget
He is Peace
He is Jealous. For me. NOT of me. But for me. My dad that protects me. That showers me with love. That reigns me in with discipline. That sings to my soul. That dances with my spirit. And provides my portion and my cup.
His Character twisted with my circumstance is enough. And each day He reveals more and more of the path that has been laid before me. And the fog is clearing. And the rain is letting up. And I realize I was never alone in the woods with the fog and the rain running from the wolves. I am walking thru the woods, Holding His hand. As He shows me the way. I can hear the wolves howling. I can feel the rain on my face. BUT. My Father is protecting me..every step to the meadow.
