Other emets will know what I am talking about here. I saw a TV show today that had vomiting in it. I immediately ran to the TV to turn it off as soon as I heard it was on. My mind said so fast, it must be an omen that I am going to get sick tonight. WHAT??!! That is insane!
So before I knew it I was headed to the cupboard for my safety net medication. It has been 10 days since I have taken one. I got to the cupboard and reached for the handle. As I looked up I saw it. The faded construction paper taped to the cupboard door. On the paper is "neatly" printed:
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
Deuteronomy 31:6
Then I remembered. I don't believe in omens. I don't need unnecessary medication. I don't need to sit and worry. Why, you ask? Because I am a child of God. I am saved, held, and cared for by the One who will never let me fall. He knows the path I am taking and He has promised good to me all of my days. Faith beats fear.
Lord, Thank you for the win. Please increase my faith as the days pass. Amen.
AMEN!!
