"When we make statements like, 'God wouldn't do this... would He?' Do you understand that at that moment you're actually putting God's actions in submission to YOUR reasoning. You're in essence saying God wouldn't think that way or act that way because I wouldn't think that way or act that way." -Francis Chan Isaiah 55:8-9 For my thoughts are NOT your thoughts, NEITHER are your ways my ways, said the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. I don't know where this is comforting or uncomfortable.

    Hi Rae,
    I'm so sorry to hear about these anxious things you are waiting about. May you find rest and peace in the plans of our God, who works out everything for our good. We don't always understand that 'good', but we can trust that He knows what He is doing.
    "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" Romans 8:28
    "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil. 4:6-7
