Strength in Surrender
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.—1 Peter 5:7 (NIV)
The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land.—Song of Solomon 2:12 (KJV)
Flowers in spring are a symbol of faith, a reminder that even though you may be feeling out of sorts the earth is in order and on schedule. There are times when everyone goes through periods when their faith is low and hope seems futile. To all who hold on, God promises renewal and rebirth as surely as the daffodils return each spring.
Lord, when I struggle, give me the faith to believe.
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.—1 Peter 5:7 (NIV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.—Proverbs 3:5–6 (NIV)
In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.—Job 1:22 (NIV)
