CLOSE YOUR EYES
By Marion Smith
August 9, 2010
John 14:18 I will not leave you as orphans
I remember once when took my mother in law to the orthopedic surgeon
for an examination. One of the tests was for her to shut her eyes and
try to walk a few steps. She was aware her balance was off, but she
did as the doctor asked, anyway. She knew that he was asking her to do
something important, and she had confidence that he would catch her
when she began to sway and fall.
Do we act with the same trust and faith in God as she had done with
the doctor? When He asks us to do something we know will be
uncomfortable or scary, are we obedient? Do we have faith that He
will be there to catch us? That He will not let us fall flat on our
faces? That His everlasting arms are big enough to hold us through
the frightening times of life?
I pray we would have that type of an obedient spirit, and have that
much faith. God tells us in the Bible He will never leave or forsake
us- and His promises are true! He has proved them over and over to
us, time and again throughout the ages as well as with me on a
personal level.
Thank you, dear Lord, for you promises. Especially the one that says
you will always be with us.
