Have you ever felt things swirling around you and a loss of control due to the circumstances you are facing?  We recently went through a big transition at work, and that is exactly how I felt.  When I lay awake at night, here are a few things that I was reminded:

1.  God is in control:  This transition is no surprise for our Father, and He has only good things planned for our future (Jeremiah 29:11) . Let us “walk by faith, not by sight”, trusting in Him through this difficult time.  (2 Cor 5:7)

2.  We need’s God’s peace:  Keep praying throughout the day for peace-“not as the world gives”, but the peace that Jesus promised us. (John 14:27). He wants to hear from you.

3.  We are children of God:  Our identity does not come from our workplace.  Our identity comes from Jesus Christ.  (John 1:12)

4.  We serve God:  We do not serve man, we serve Christ. Remember who our boss is: Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 6:7)

Whatever it is that you are facing today, be encouraged by these four points.  Remember- you are chosen and highly favored and you are not alone.  Jesus said that he will never leave us. That’s a promise.
