God Understands

"God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof." Job 28:23

There are times when we feel like our life has no direction at all. Everything we try does not seem to work, and we have come to a point where we do not even want to try any more. People who are close to us try to give us advice, only for us to find that their advice was geared towards helping them. This journey called life can be difficult, and we may not understand all that we go through, but we can rest assure God knows and He understands it all. The Scripture reminds us that God understands the way, and He knows the place. I encourage you today that even if you do not understand all that you are going through, remember God knows. God not only knows everything you are facing in life, He also knows all that you will face in life. He understands the storms you are in, and the trials you go through. God understands the path you are on, and He knows you do not understand. God also knows the place where He is taking you. He knows and has already prepared the place for you, all you have to do is trust Him to bring you to that place. Let God lead and guide your steps, and when you do not understand hold tighter to His hand and let Him lead you to a blessed place prepared especially for you. I may not understand all the things that God is doing in my life, and I may not know the place where He is taking me, but He knows and that is enough for me. I will trust God to lead me and guide me to the place He has for me, and since I am trusting Him completely, I know for sure, "It's My Year To Get My Thing from My God!"

Prayer:

Lord, there are times when I don’t understand all that I am facing, but I find my solace in the fact that you know. Since I am your child I know that you will always lead and guide me the right place that you have for me. God you know me and no matter what I face I have peace knowing that you will guide me safely. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
