In Between?

In Between?

If you can’t stick up for or save yourself there’s One who can. Even if you did everything wrong and don’t even deserve to be forgiven there’s One who will. If everybody casts you out and turns their backs on you there’s One who wont. There is One Who is faithful One Who if True and He solemnly promised to take care of you. He has a long term plan you usually don’t understand so why worry and try til your brains almost fry? You can’t figure it out but if you factor Him in, with God on your side you know you’ll eventually win. This makes the mean time not quite so mean because you’re trusting in Him when you’re stuck in between - In between towns, friends, jobs, churches or houses and hopefully not but even in between spouses. There’s One You can count Who won’t do you wrong, the Almighty God to whom you belong. So don’t worry and stress and focus on bad, but remember God’s greater than all, and He is your Dad. Take comfort in knowing the goodness He’s showing when you’re overwhelmed He still knows where you’re going. Not only that, but prepares the way, even heaven itself, for you one day. You can trust Him with “your eternity” which includes today and tomorrow, so don’t let worldly woes fill you with sorrow. The more you realize His presence the more your joy will increase and when you mind’s fixed on Him you’ll have perfect peace! You may be in between almost anything but never in between Lord’s because His absolute faithfulness is one of your eternal rewards.

You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You.

For in Yah, the Lord, is everlasting strength.

Ps 40:1-5

40 I waited patiently for the Lord;
And He inclined to me,
And heard my cry.
2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,
Out of the miry clay,
And set my feet upon a rock,
And established my steps.
3 He has put a new song in my mouth —
Praise to our God;
Many will see it and fear,
And will trust in the Lord.

4 Blessed is that man who makes the Lord his trust,
And does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works
Which You have done;
And Your thoughts toward us
Cannot be recounted to You in order;
If I would declare and speak of them,
They are more than can be numbered.
NKJV

He remains faithful;
He cannot deny Himself.
