This is my verse for tonight. I am fearful and dismayed when I think of having to cough and leave during the Chris Tomlin concert. I can do everything in my power to prepare myself but my cough can be unpredictable so the threat is often in the back of my mind. I will try and walk my talk by turning my burden over to Him and trust with all my heart.....and lungs. 'He will strengthen and help me' so why doubt? The devil wants to steal my joy in a concert full of praise music and worship.
'He who is in me is greater than he that is in this world.' My will to go is greater than my fears, too.
Will be praying for you. You are good at walking by faith, stretching those muscles, and improving your spiritual sight. As well as ours.
ReplyDeleteI am praying for you, Angie. That verse is one that I have clung to many times since I was a young bride left alone in Taiwan with a husband flying into and out of Viet Nam. Without His assurance of strength and help, there would have been many times that I just fell apart under the stress of fear. Praise God for His comfort!
ReplyDeleteHope all went well and that you had an amazing night of worship. Love the picture...such a happy scene for such a burdensome worry.
ReplyDeleteSorita told me she saw you and your friends at the concert last night. You have so much courage and that must be a gift of God to you. My prayers are with you and your family. I love all of you very much. grace
ReplyDeleteIt seems that our trust was rewarded. Hope you have rested well.

Praying you made it through the concert without even a slight cough. I know you must have had a good time. Love you Robbie
ReplyDeleteHindsight is 20-20! So thankful God took away your cough, freed you of worry and that you had such a wonderful, fun night. I love your phrase, "I'm going to walk my talk"....must use that sometime....more importantly, must DO that all the time! I know you were happy, happy, happy on Friday night!! Love you, T.
