Confidence in Him

Here by faith in Him to dwell! For I know, whatever befall me, Jesus does all things well.           —Fanny Crosby

Unpredictable. Part of life’s delight– or dread– is never knowing what will occur, who we’ll meet, or what new doors will open or close. Many people fear the unknown because it takes the control out of their hands.

Fanny Crosby was wrongly blinded as an infant. Her tragedy could have made her bitter. Instead, she grew up to write thousands of hymns praising her Saviour who “does all things well.” She had confident loyalty to Jesus. She knew that all things work for the best when he is in charge.

Rest in your Saviour’s loving arms. Whatever happens, be assured hat Jesus will weave it together to fit into his design and purpose for your life or for others. Faith is maintaining confidence in his character, not in your circumstances. 

Whatever befalls you, Jesus does all things well. 

“Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, Gid’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.    –Romans 8:26-28

Prayer: “Jesus, I don’t know about tomorrow but I trust you will work everything together for good.”
