Psalm 32:7 For You are my hiding place; you protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of victory. The Lord says, "I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you...."
While Corrie Ten Boom and her sister were suffering in the concentration camps, on one occasion she and her sister were talking together and said, "Our hiding place is being in God's will." They'd learned there is great security when we're in the centre of God's will for our lives. What amazing grace God gave them to see it like that instead of feeling sorry for themselves.
Sometimes God's plan is not what we had planned but He says it will be the best pathway for our lives. Even in the midst of great difficulties they had learned to trust God and He used their experiences to help many people later on.
So be encouraged no matter what we may be going through, it is temporary, and we have a hope no one can steal from us and His name is Jesus, the One who suffered so much for our sake, to give us victory in the here and now.
Maybe the plan unfolding for you isn't what you had thought it would be, but learn to trust God, that He knows what He's doing, and He'll get you to where you need to be, and He'll make sure you have the finances to make it work. If His will is taking you outside your box then know it's the best place for you to be.
Thank You Lord You're helping us to lift our eyes up to see that You are our hiding place, that You have made us more than conquerors through Jesus, that You're guiding our lives and to remember Your joy is our strength throughout our day. Amen.
