PANIC PASS OR VACATION

What looks like disaster or what those may even intend to be disastrous for you still does not give you the right to a panic pass. Either we trust God ALL the time or we don't. There is no gray area with this topic.
We all naturally panic at first when a situation that was not planned (like we control something) happens that is not favorable; but if you know that you know God's got you, then you can walk in the valley of the shadow of death and FEAR NO EVIL (person, situation, event) with grace and confidence because God is the author and finisher of it all!!

We recently had a major shift in our parochial school but God is a keeper and He has NEVER left or failed us-EVER. So after a much needed vacation (7 years of straight service, calls for a much needed rest) then bam the shift and reason for the shift was revealed. Literally, the prayer was (with a big exhale) "God, you got this" and we went on vacation. Because there was no need for us to sit here thinking "oh me oh my" what was our worrying and complaints really going to get us?? God's got this!!! It's like sitting in a chair, can you imagine every time you see a chair you have to size it up or your nerves get bad? NO! You sit down knowing that the chair has a design purpose and keeps holding you up. If only we had that kind of trust in our Sovereign God.

Even when you THINK you are on track and it may look and feel like you are..but the question is are you on God's track to the destination the He has mapped out??

When the shift comes, and it will..even for us again, do not whine and complain, fall over and out...begin to praise God and know that you know for sure that HE knows what is best for you, your family, your business, your church your life..dig in, pray up, watch and listen; it may seem bad...oooooh but baby.... it is just a shift into the right lane, greatness, the plan, your destiny, the big picture and yes, it can be painful, confusing and hard (because of your own resistance or self) or a cake walk and a blessing (because of your faith that God's got you!!! And since we all have free will..the choice is yours. Which will you chose - Panic Pass or Vacation?

Truth and Love
