he will fight for me ....

 
so many times i forget this promise
that has been made to me ...
 

{ source }
 
i try to conquer all of the
mess life throws at me on my own.
& i've already been
promised that the fight
is not mine .... it is the Lord's.
& that's the way He wants it.
that is the way He designed it.
 
it's hard to just "be still" ...
i become impatient & frustrated in the waiting.
i am part of a culture of immediate gratification,
where "being still" isn't how problems get solved.
 
in that frustration, i have to remind myself
of exodus 14:14 ....
the Lord is doing the fighting,  not me!
His ways are better than mine.
He's already been where i'll end up.
He can handle whatever
i encounter.
& also, note to self,
He happens to be the creator
of the universe ... so I think He can
handle my little problems!
