Oh how I love and need this verse! It has renewed and refreshed me in my life and in ministry.
Two and a half years ago I entered a season of great transition. I had just gotten married and a few months later, my husband interviewed for his new ministry role in Las Vegas. Right about that time, I found out we were pregnant. Days before moving to our new home for a new role in our new marriage, I had a miscarriage.
I know what you are saying. “Elaine, you're not supposed to get married, change jobs, move to a new city, and start a family all in the same year!” Well, by God’s loving and sovereign hand, we were experiencing all of it.
How could I do it all? Support my husband in ministry. Find a place I could serve at our new church. Make new friends. Mourn the loss of a child. Heal from the hurt we experienced in our former church. Prepare for the wonderful ministry ahead in Las Vegas. The task ahead of me was tremendous.
The moments of pain and loneliness were excruciating at times. Some days I didn't think I would survive! But let me tell you something amazing - My God met me there and carried me. When I didn’t know how I was going to do it, the Lord led me back to this verse. He opened my eyes and renewed my mind with the truth from His Word.
God calls me to Himself above all. All of the highs and lows in ministry are about knowing and glorifying Him. God has given me EVERYTHING I need for the life He has planned for me and my family - I don't need to doubt or be distracted by the circumstances surrounding me. The more I know and delight in Him, the deeper I know and experience these truths.
Life and ministry bring constant change to our lives. We can be distracted and tempted with doubts and insecurities. Be encouraged! God is with you and has given you everything, EVERYTHING, you need to continue this good work and to live this life He has called you to.
Don’t give up.
Are you experiencing changes and great transition in your life and struggling with this as well? How can you begin to experience this divine power in your life?
