A realization occurred to me today as I was watching a hulu show or rather listening to one as I was reading and looking out the window. All of a sudden I just stopped what I was doing, and a flood of emotions came as I remembered... God is, He has always been, He will always be. The God who has been faithful in the past through hard times, through good times, through sad, through joyful ones... will be faithful in the future. I can trust in a God who IS, who WILL BE... who remains a constant in a trial, in a hurricane, in times when I am at my wits end, it times when I struggle, in times when it seems as though nothing is going right, in times when I struggle to believe and hold onto truth.. He is there in the midst of it. I may not see Him. I may not hear Him. BUT, I can trust that He is there.. because that is what He promises.. and He is always faithful to His promises. It does not matter that my situation is hard right now... it may change, it may not change, but God never changes... and through it all, He will be faithful.
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel... Isaiah 43:1b-3a
