We must trust the Lord. Pure trust is like a little child who is instantly calm just by holding hands with a trusted adult even in the middle of a scary situation. They know the adult they are with is going to take good care of them. There are times in life we are affected by tragedy. We must roll that care over onto Him. We must take His hand and know He is near.

One day while flying on a plane with my, then, little girl we were ready to take off. This disturbed her. She was in the seat by the window with her seatbelt on. Once the engines started she put her blanket over her head. She just sat there still as a statue. However, when she felt movement a tiny hand reached out quickly from under the blanket to take my hand. Once I firmly took her little hand in mine she calmly relaxed.

So, let’s put on the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit with one hand and take the Master’s hand in the other.. we have some work to do and places to go! We can see by looking around us the Lord is coming back shortly! Don’t be afraid but trust!
