Security

Security has nothing to do with how much money you have in the bank. It has nothing to do with how marvelous your health is. It has nothing to do with the stability of the economic system. It has nothing to do with job security. It has nothing to do with how fantastic of a retirement plan you have. It has everything to do with Who holds you in His hands and promises to be with you and stand by you in the midst of the flood, in the midst of the fire, in the midst of the storm, even in those times when you're trying to live as if you don't need Him or want Him or trust Him. In poverty His presence makes you richer than a king. In loneliness His presence lavishes you with His love. In defeat and failure His presence makes you an overwhelming conqueror. In the shadow of death His presence makes you confidently fearless. In disappointment His presence sets you on the Rock of hope. In times of prosperity His presence gives you His heart of compassion for the needy. In times of confusion His presence gives you the clarity of faith. In each and every moment of your life, His presence makes you secure.

Security: "But while God and I shall be, I am His and He is mine."
