Being Led by God

God never sends us into a situation alone. He always goes before us as He did with the children of Israel when He led them with a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. Our Heavenly Father always precedes us in any situation we may encounter. Not only does God go before us, but He also stands beside and behind us to provide protection and comfort (Psalm 139:7-13). When we are going through confusing and challenging times, let us remember God's promises never to leave us or forsake us. When we are afraid, let us trust in Him. When we are worried, let us turn our concerns over to Him and then place our lives in His hands. There is nowhere we can go that we shall not find Christ waiting for us with loving and open arms. As children of God, let us rest in the knowledge that our Savior preceded us and walks with us through every experience of our lives. God cares for us and watches over us. — Mark 14:28
