As many of you know, in the last twenty four months there have been many "dark nights" for my soul. I am so thankful for this assignment because it has helped me to realize once again, anew and afresh, what an Awesome God we serve. As I look back over this journey, I now know none of it caught God by surprise. I walked, and still am walking, in the assurance that Jesus is the Savior of my soul, that God is my Father and that neither of them will let me walk alone or in darkness.
God has been faithful! Even though there were and still are many dark nights...starting with my mother's heart attack and open heart surgery; to our beloved sons battle with cancer and my precious husband's life changing stroke toward the end of Tommy's life, His precious Son, Jesus, has always been on time. WHEN HE SHOWS UP, HE ALWAYS DISPELS THE DARKNESS!
This chapter has helped me to remember...
1. That God is with me each and every day
2. That God will help me stay the course
3. That God brings Peace in every situation
4. That I am a treasured Child of God; and our treasures, we take good care of.
So, from dark nights, I finished this chapter realizing that God will always help me stay the course. He is and will always be the peace that passes all understanding. I am a treasured child of The Most High God, therefore, I am learning to thank God for the dark nights, because therein lies my opportunity to shine before men and women as an example of what faith and trust in God can do.
Not afraid of future dark nights of my soul!
