From Fear & Frailty to Faith & Fullness

God works all things together for our good. When fear comes like a storm, it drives us to cast our vessel in faith onto God's waves.
Fear like a wolf, though intending to devour the sheep, God turns fear's intentions so that it reminds us of our frailty, our need to be utterly dependent on Him and unintentionally chases/drives us to seek refuge back into His arms.
God allowed such to happen to the Psalmists and He continues to allow and to work such things together for all His children.
As the Perfect Father, He purposely empties us of our self-sufficiency that we might be humbled, enabled to see and be blessed by His redeeming provision.

"For You will light my lamp; The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness. For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall. As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him." ~Psalm 18:28-30

"Behold, this day I  am going the way of all the earth. And you know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one thing has failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spoke concerning you. All have come to pass for you; not one word of them has failed." ~Joshua 23:14
