Do not Fear, I am the LORD.

So this year I am totally pumped about homecoming (: It's tonight... (:(:
Yeah I know what you are thinking- "who is your date?" but we are going as a group this year. If you haven't checked out the "Tutorial on how to Dance" video ( http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=161552580525750 ), you should (: we worked hard on it (:

This week, God has really been working in my life through showing me that everything isn't always going to turn out just the way I want it to- and THAT'S OKAY.

WHATT???

I am such a control freak that and so this is a really hard thing to wrap my mind around. I always want things to be done a certain way and when they don't... I tend to panic. The Lord has led several verses my way this week and I would love to share them with y'all.

Blessed is the one who finds wisdom,
and the one who gets understanding,
for the gain from her is better than gain from silver
and her profit better than gold.
She is more precious than jewels,
and nothing you desire can compare with her.
Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
and all her paths are peace.
-Proverbs 3:13-17

ou keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on you,
because he trusts in you.
-Isaiah 26:3

When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
- Isaiah 43:2

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
-John 14:27

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.
-John 16:33 <--- This verse gave me so much courage. Anyway, I hope these verses have helped you with your walk with the Lord and have encouraged you. "DO NOT FEAR. I AM THE LORD."
