What if the above passage was really true in our lives? I mean to say, what if we really believed it and lived like we believed it? What would our lives look like? How would it change our day-to-day life experience? How would it change the way others perceived us?
What if, no matter what happened, we faced it with a smile in our hearts knowing, "God's got this." What if the peace and joy we feel on our best days was just as present on our worst?
What if we finally got it that while troubles are as ubiquitous as mosquitoes and as varied as snowflakes, God is omnipresent and never changing, that He is here and in control of our lives?
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we would lay our anxieties to rest and bury our worries in the depths of our faith? Wouldn't it be amazing if we lived with the ever-present confidence that God is our "ever-present help" and even if our world should "give way," we would "not fear" nor would our hearts grow faint?
If we did, really believe God was always with us, then we could "rejoice always" (Phil 4:4) having "learned the secret of being content not matter what the circumstances" (Phil 4:11) and knowing that we "can [endure] all things through Him who gives [us] strength" (Phil 4:13).
Jus' Sayn.
