This deserves a proper post, hopefully later in the week. The next few days are a bit mad so a photo will do for now.

Don’t hide your face from me O God for my heart is distressed;
I hold on tightly Lord, for I cannot discern your leading.

My blindness overwhelms me, I cry out in the darkness;
Seeds of doubt are sown in my mind, I feel isolated from your council.

I am attacked from every side, unable to distinguish friend from foe.
If I cannot see my enemy, how can I withstand the onslaught.

Yet I will trust in You, and in the promises laid before me.
Though I stumble I will not fall, for you are faithful, and are sovereign over your creation.

Your love for me will never change, you desire for me is to prosper.
So I will wait on You, for You will speak.

Yesterday I had an interview with Derek leaf and Mitch regarding joining the navs staff. Something Derek said was quite interesting. Picking up on my fear he referred to the following.

1 John 4:16b-18:
“God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.”

He also emphasized that the converse was true, there being no love in fear…

Just something to bear in mind.
