Going Through the Dark

On the way back from a Super Bowl Party I went to that was a hour and a half away. I left about 10pm and I noticed it was really dark. The moon was less than half full, the highway had very little traffic and there were few street lights. The highway I drove on has a lot of curves and exits and so it made me nervous to drive on not knowing if the road kept going straight or if it curved. I turned on my brights as much as I could. Most of the time I was forced to keep looking down at where my normal headlights were able to reach so I could watch the lines.

Not knowing what was up ahead, made me really nervous. I then realized that it was kind of like what I am dealing with in my life. I don't know what's coming up. I don't know if I'm going to continue working at my job or will I find a new job and have to move. I don't know if I can make Summer plans or if I'll be working. As I was driving I remembered a verse I've heard mentioned a couple times this past week. In Isaiah 41:13 it says:

"For I am the LORD, your God,
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you."

Even if I can't see where my life is going, I know that God is with me. He's holding my hand every step of the way. How awesome is that?
