Count on It

(Pro 2:8 KJV) He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.

As I write we are in political chaos.  There is no way to know which way things will go and what that will mean to the man on the street.  In that context, as I read this verse this morning I was reminded that His presence “preserves” (8104) our “way” (1870).  This is not a new revelation.  I live in it every day.  Yet it is a reminder that God is constantly reinforcing because we tend to be creatures of the moment.  

The moment can promise all kinds of rainbows or threaten with hurricanes and broken water mains.  Being finite creatures we can be shaken to the roots.  If you notice the context of this verse it is the roots that will keep us firm and moving forward.  It is the roots that are established as we have been listening and seeking the wisdom He has to offer.

So?  Storm clouds ahead, sometime.  Count on it.  Also count on Him.
