Isaiah 42:16



I will lead the blind by ways they have not known,

along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;

I will turn darkness into LIGHT before them

and make the rough places SMOOTH.

These are the things I will do;

I will not forsake them.

This verse, that a dear friend shared with me back in January, speaks to me so clearly.  I keep it close by to read daily.



God doesn't expect me to go through this without HIM!   He doesn't expect me to know what to do or how to do it.  He just asks me to trust in Him, to lean on Him fully. He knows that I am "blind", that I am on an unfamiliar path, but He promises to give me light, His light and make the path smooth by caring for me, the kids and such.  He will not give up on us down here in this crazy world, dealing with hard things.  All He asks is that we LOVE Him and TRUST Him.  As I look at the past and see how He has cared for me, I can rest assured that I am in good hands.
