He knows the path, the obstacles and what's around every corner and on the other side of every door.<br /><br />My job is to trust and obey Him; study His Word, believe it and live it by faith. My job is to pray and cast my cares upon Him and trust Him to guide me on His path of righteousness. He's an awesome GOD, a dear Abba Father and Mighty, Holy and Righteous in all His ways. He'll never fail us Debbie. <br /><br />I love you! HE LOVES YOU MORE!LisaShawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01847564334928464883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-35389867910958774142011-04-15T22:38:57.990-07:002011-04-15T22:38:57.990-07:00Hi Debbie,

Don't get me wrong, my faith falters many times throughout trials, but I need the trials so that He can change me.<br /><br />God bless,<br />MicheleWalk In Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14771576315871776572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-35554089198014169632011-04-15T05:48:39.127-07:002011-04-15T05:48:39.127-07:00Your friend Jill got it right! Our uncertain time...Your friend Jill got it right! Our uncertain times are "an opportunity to trust". Boy! Have I found that to be true! I pray, Debbie, that each new day brings you more peace as you learn to fully trust in God. He loves you and as you quoted at the end of the post, "I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." Your future with him is secure!<br /><br />Blessings, JoanJoan Davis (Jo)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02305888520649862063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-40326907427414791392011-04-14T10:50:33.944-07:002011-04-14T10:50:33.944-07:00I like having a plan and wish God put it all out t...I like having a plan and wish God put it all out there for us...but like you said, it does give us the opportunity to trust.Missiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03728595822929902508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-71541784151398144262011-04-13T16:01:03.062-07:002011-04-13T16:01:03.062-07:00My mom and I are like that too when it comes to bo...My mom and I are like that too when it comes to books - read the ending first so I won't be disappointed with the ending. <br /><br />I've been realizing that nothing is really certain - for me personally, I want to know what my future holds (will there be someone for me or will I be single?). I want to know what's coming. Yet, God's been really good at keeping everything a secret. <br /><br />So am I dreading what's around the corner? maybe a little, if I'm completely honest with myself. Am I excited to see what's around the corner? definitely. <br /><br />This was such a great post! "I may not know what the future holds but He does. And through the difficult times, I'm slowly learning that He is trustworthy and I can depend on Him." Amen and Amen!! <br /><br />God bless you as you walk with Him, one step at a time!Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15169648238518640043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-81624901833859195722011-04-13T11:24:55.779-07:002011-04-13T11:24:55.779-07:00Yes, I nodded as I read.

Godd has been telling me just to be obedient and He will work out His will in my life. Then he took me to Hebrews 11 to so many who just obeded and never even saw the results of their obedience. But they lived by faith and God is still rewarding.

Doing so by praying and sitting quietly in the backseat while He takes us where we need to be. It can be scary at times but we eventually get where we need to be. God bless your journey ahead, take every corner with Christ at the driver's wheel.
