Lightening streaked closer and closer and the thunder kept
getting louder. Even though it was not raining yet, it was evident by the black
clouds that a storm was brewing. My daddy’s dog Jack, also known as Baby, is
very frightened by bad weather. Daddy opened the back door and let Jack into
the utility room. When I arrived to drop
off groceries, no one could find Jack. We called as we searched throughout the
house. Daddy found Jack in the old fireplace behind the artificial logs. He was
happy and unafraid and refused to come out until the storm was over.
It seems that life’s circumstances can bring joy or grief, happiness
or despair. It is so great to know that for those who love the Lord Jesus Christ
there is safety from all harm. The challenge is to simply believe that God’s assurance
of His everlasting love is true. If we want to live a life without fear, we must
trust and obey God completely. v. 19 “We have this
hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.” Hebrews 6:19 NAS Study Bible
Psalm 112 v.7 “He will have no fear of bad news;
his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord. v. 8 His heart is secure, he will have no fear;
in the end he will look with triumph on his foes.”
