It can be quite puzzling to try and imagine the way that God works in the lives of His followers. God's will does not always make sense in our lives from our perspective but from His it makes perfect sense. Consider Philip. He was preaching a successful revival meeting in Samaria and all of a sudden God calls him away to a desert crossroad where he would encoutner only one man. From our perspective it makes no sense.
In our lives we face change constantly. It has been said that the only constant is that nothing is constant. In times of change our stress level rises and sometimes it seems as though our world is literally crashing in around us. Here is a truth for those times. The same God that created the world created you. The same God that caused the sun to rise this morning caused you to rise as well. The same God that controls the entire universe controls your life as well. He is in charge and we have nothing to fear. We serve a loving God that cares for His children and if you have placed your faith in Jesus as your Savior then you are a child of God and have nothing to fear.
