Be strong and courageous. Be not afraid or dismayed before the king of Assyria and all the horde that is with him, for there is Another with us greater than [all those] with him. With him is an arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our GOD to help us and to fight our battles. -2 CHRONICLES 32:7-8
We depend on people in our lives for love, companionship, friendship, even fellowship; but they can only do what GOD allows them. Why would you depend on a person of flesh that can easily be moved out of your life instead of putting your FAITH in GOD?
Trust that people are placed in our lives for different reasons and sometimes just for a season; yet, it is to serve GOD's purpose. If they are moved in or out, trust that it should be no concern of ours. It is all in the Master's plan.
Give thanks and always appreciate those who surround us and trust that GOD knows what he is doing!
