Crossing the River of Jordan Daily
Joshua must be very afraid in his heart. With over 2 million Israelites under his care and been given the instruction to react to "Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them" command from God, I am pretty sure the level of anxiety of the unknown is what we may face at times too.
Well, I do. Quite many times a day in fact. It's not about our faith in the Lord in question here, but the knowledge that we have to tackle what our minds, qualification, experience cannot predict. It can be scary or peaceful...either camp implying a different depth of trust in Christ.
What then? Live each day with a reactive spirit, waiting to muscle your way to managing the unpredictables? Or simply submit and surrender your life at 7am through a simple prayer of trust.
Lord, I ask you to help me cross that river in complete trust today...amen.
