The Lord will perfect that which concerns me. Your mercy, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
Psalm 138:8
From the dawn of time God had you in mind. He created a tailor-made plan for your life, and being God, he intends to fulfill that plan. The worries of this world would try to convince you and me that maybe God can’t handle all the concerns and stress that we carry each day. We begin to hesitate in putting our complete faith in our Heavenly Father, and we start looking to ourselves for answers and results.
But God knows what he’s doing. God hasn’t forgotten his plans for you. God is deeply aware of those things that concern you. In fact, they concern him too. And he is more than capable of taking care of our children, our jobs, our homes, our physical bodies than we ever could…no matter how hard we try.
Not only will he complete the work that he started in you, but he will perfect it. He will make it better than you could ever imagine. His love is a faithful love…it never goes away. Just as you and I would never abandon our own children, he will never abandon you. He will never forsake you.
You are safely kept in the palm of his hand.
How precious you are to him. So let him carry your burdens. Let him work out his plans for you. Trust him and obey. And allow him to draw you into peace, protection, rest and security.
Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.
Jeremiah 31:3
