On the Journey...
(Weekly insights from FMC Leaders) December 5, 2018 It’s not about me. I can’t imagine going through life as I know it, without faith, hope, and trust in our Lord, Jesus Christ. It’s not about me—it’s about the Lord—faith that He will be with me every step of the way, hope that we are on the same road together, and trust that He will be with me always. But then, it’s not about me! The author of Hebrews 11:1 writes, “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” Definition of trust: Firm belief or faith in another. Proverbs 3:5 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.” It definitely is NOT about me. There is simply no way to have gotten through family illness, parents deaths, a sister’s death, son Erik’s death, Jozi’s moving away, grandson Erik’s birth, Jozi’s life spared, grandson Erik’s life spared—all of those things, and many more—all that I couldn’t control—but it’s not about me!! I believe it is accepting the Lord’s leading—whether I felt Him leading or not—it is all about Him!! How can I not have faith, hope, and trust in Him, when I look back on my life’s journey? It’s about Him! So, as Don and I embark on this new adventure—this new journey in our lives, I ask for your prayers as we seek to do His will, that we will continue to have faith, hope, and trust, and that He will continue to guide ALL of our paths—because it’s not about me, or us, or you, it’s about our Lord, Jesus Christ.
