web of faith

"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'" Jeremiah 29:11


Up close, the student's art work appeared to be a creepy spider web...



But backing up, the picture changed radically.   Distance revealed a view of beauty, not fear. 



In the midst of our hardships, fear or hurt can overtake our soul, mind and heart.  But with some time and distance, we can view our situation differently.  God has a wonderful way of bringing beauty out of all circumstances... in His perfect time. 

Father, we ask for strength in trusting You when the webs of life cover us with doubt, lies and terror.  Help us to remember Your Truth --  in this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.

have a rest-filled day!
