The Lord Goes Before You | July 21st

“If I go to prepare a place for you.”

  John 14:3

   Beloved, let it be understood that the Lord is always a step ahead of you. We are often worried and upset about many things. We do not know what tomorrow will bring, so it becomes a question for us, a cause of concern. We plan and try to prepare, but there are many circumstances that make us feel unprepared.

   The assurance we have for tomorrow and all of our days before is that the Lord is not only with us in the present, but He goes before us. He knows the beginning from the end. Nothing is a surprise to Him. God has promised us that His mercy and goodness shall follow us all the days of our lives. That the good Shepherd goes before us and that He will finish the work He has begun in us.

  Rest in this assurance today. Take each moment as it comes and entrust yourself to the Lord’s providence. He is faithful and good.

In Christ Alone.
