The gentle caress of a light summer breeze brings relief from the sweltering heat of the day. Around the bend in the road a petrol station calms our rising concern as we nervously keep our eye on the fuel gauge which has steadily nudged towards empty.
These agents of relief are messengers of our providence. In every way through every day God faithfully fulfils His promise in all our lives. The rain that falls; the wind that blows; the sun that shines are all servants of God’s Sovereignty. He wills and they respond hastening to do His bidding.
We remember the observation of the frightened disciple on the storm-tossed waters of Galilee when they confessed “even the winds obey Him.” If this God clothes the grass of the field will he not supply the needs of His children. Or if the sparrows fall to the ground is monitored by a caring God may we not draw reassurance of His tender love. He has set His love upon us cementing His favour, He will never leave us or forsake us, committing to us His presence and His power. Whatever our worst fears or deepest concerns may be we know that nothing can separate us from our Father’s love; nor deprive us of His care. From the mountain to the valley the climate may well change but God’s sure promises remain the same. The temperature of our expectation may rise and fall but our Lord changes not and His compassion never fails. Let us then with hearts aglow pursue the path prepared wherein the unfolding magnitude of mercy and of Grace propels us towards the goal of our eternal rest. When by and by we’ll see the King and Crown Him Lord of all. Robert & Fiona
