For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for your welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the LORD, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and the places where I have driven you, declares the LORD, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.
Jeremiah 29:11-14
Oh what encouragement! God is Sovereign, He has a perfect plan, and He does not hide from those who seek Him. All I can say is uff da! These words were balm to my heart and soul this week as I watch people I dearly love and treasure suffer. In these moments I forget and need to be reminded that God is not surprised when diversity knocks at our door. He also does not abandon us in our moments of trial. Not only does God not hide his heart from us he works for our redemption. Praise God!
