God Guides Me





Random Journal Day: (entry from 2010)

“The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?
“Psalm 27:1 (NIV)

God guides me through this place called life. When I face adverse circumstances, I never know when, where or how they will end.

I found this to be true in 1984 and 1985. It was true in 1989 and again in 1995 through 1997 and again in 1998. The next two years were stressful. The year 2000, I had to go with God and trust he was there with me during a very difficult time.

God helped me through a court hearing in February 2003 that didn’t go my way. Strange, it took a full year before the outcome of the court decision was completed. He helped me to do my best when I took a job. God allowed me to stay strong at the end of that time.

My Lord was with me in June, 2009 when we received word from the mortician that Dad had died. God walked with us through Hubby’s sister’s accident and her home-going in June 2010. He continues to help me through the times when Hubby’s health issues come to the forefront of our days.

Jehovah-jirah, He provides what I need and guides me through the dark paths that seem to always lie ahead.

He keeps me strong. I shall no longer fear.
