Last week my husband and I welcomed our fifth GRANDchild into the world. A beautiful baby boy. Next month we will get to love on him for a few days and this Nona can hardly wait. Because we live in California and our son and daughter-in-love live in Texas we are going to fly.
When my husband first approached me with this, I thought it would be a grand idea to take a road trip. Ok, truth be told I really don’t like to fly and was doing anything and everything to avoid getting on a plane. But as my husband and I discussed it, I soon realized that I was gripped by fear and the what if’s of being on a plane again. Long story short at the root of this was unbelief.
I was once again in the drivers seat of life. It was imperative that I move on over and let God be the driver. When He drives, there are not any bumps in the road. I had not been trusting in God that He had this covered. There was nothing to fear at all. 1 John 4:18 says it so well. “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out all fear”.
If there is the slightest opening, Satan loves to find a way in through it to place fear, doubt and unbelief in our Christian walk. It is at these times that we recognize what is happening and relinquish everything over to God knowing that He is in control and we can not out trust Him.
I am looking forward to getting on the plane with my hubby and enjoying everything God has for us. I know with him leading the way, I can’t go wrong.
