A friendly reminder from my friend James Ryle:
God does not sit in heaven wringing His hands in anxious concern over the
alarming state of affairs in our baffled world — He’s in charge. He is not
clueless to the scheming of godless people who seek to build a society without
His blessings – He’s in charge. And He is not rattled by the bloated plans of
overheated brains for how we here can save ourselves, needing no help from
heaven whatsoever. He’s in charge – and He can handle it.
So, whatever it is that’s going on in your life, know this for certain – it
is well within His reach. He can handle it. That’s why you need to let Him.
When doubts arise and fears dismay, when foes oppose you and friends forsake
you; when the bottom drops out and you are left holding an empty bag, and your
castles all crumble while your dreams turn to ashes – He is the God who can
handle it.
Trust Him, and hold tight to your faith in His faithfulness – for He will see
you through it all. And when the storm passes, as it surely will, the new day
will be filled with His presence, and with the endless possibilities He provides
for you.
While others around you are falling in fear – you stand firm, trusting the
Lord. He is the God who can handle it.
