Bible Study

I just cam back from Bible Study and had a very interesting topic.  I have a tendency to think that if my circumstances would change then my confidence would change.  I think that the insecurity I feel now would go away if only my circumstances would......... and the longer i am around the more I realize that is not true.  Something that was said tonight really stuck with me.  "Wherever you go there you are".  In other words, though where you live or where you work may change you still will remain the same person, and those struggles you had before don't go away.  i think I am learning that though my circumstances may change if my assurance is not in the Lord that security that peace will never be there.  No matter what stage of life im in.  just something that struck me.

Eric, very well said and so true. The Lord alone is our peace. I am so happy that you are clinging to Him in this time of uncertainty, sorrow, and doubt. A verse I have been praying for you 1 Pet. 5:10:
"And the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore (make you stronger that you were before) you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To Him be the power for ever and ever Amen."
