In these tumultuous times, wherein the darkness and void of this world is rapidly increasing, it is equally refreshing to know that we are to be anxious for nothing. And that in all things, there is nothing that can happen to us, that the Lord of glory, our Lord God and Saviour has not already taken care of. Some observers might call this a blind faith. Personally, I believe this just gives even more overwhelming evidence of the goodness and mercy and grace and love of God our Saviour.
"After the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared ..." (Titus 3:4-7)
Why is this important in our faith journey? Because we who believe have come to that rightful heart place of humility, wherein we recognize that we can only do all things through Christ which strengthens us. (Philippians 4:13) He is the conqueror in our day to day. And He is the One and Only King of kings and Lord of lords who delivers us from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty -- as children of the Most High. (Romans 8:21)
"Therefore, stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." (Galatians 5:1) And know too that ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. (Galatians 5:13)
For "whoso looks into the perfect law of liberty, and continues therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed." (James 1:25)
