Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord , thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Our Heavenly Father is as concerned about His saints today as He was with Israel when captured by Babylon. He knows every detail of our lives. This encourages me because I can know that the good and bad never catch Him off guard. His thoughts are of peace for us, not of evil, promising an expected end to our problems.
Someone may say, “Why doesn’t God do something about this battle I’m fighting? I’ve prayed about it. I’m trusting Him, but nothing changes.” God will move on His own time plan. Wait on Him. Keep the faith.
Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
