Bible Question: Sungoddessone, Plesae clarify and cite Scripture for "He is ... always behind you whether you know it or accept it" |
Bible Answer: Greetings Searcher - I suspect that this sungoddess perhaps has gone to sleep at the switch, but I would like to give you a verse that has brought some comfort to me: "You have enclosed me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.Ps 139:5 I believe I have told this story before on the Forum, but it is worth telling again. A dear mentor related how to appreciate those times of darkness that come into our lives. Imagine you are holding a Fabrege Egg - it is a priceless possession - you see a dangerous stretch of road ahead. What would you do? Cover the egg you are holding with your other hand. What is it like inside your hands? Dark. So when we are "in the darkness" know that God has "hedged you in" (Job 3:23) - He is protecting you and inviting you to trust Him in this. We have been told that "without faith it is impossible to please God" (Heb 11:6), perhaps we might see these dark periods as opportunities to do just that - trust Him, and therefore please Him!
