Chaos to Calm

There have been way too many times that my life has chaos for a season. Life can be unpredictable and hard to manage due to circumstances beyond my control. I think that is a pretty good definition of chaos.

The Lord can bring calm to chaos. He can bring order in the midst of confusion. In fact there is always some level of chaos going on in my life at any moment. My heart is in pursuit of His heart therefore I can have calm in the middle of any level of chaos.

Jeremiah was in the middle of chaos as Jerusalem is falling captive to Babylonians and he’s in Jerusalem as it’s going down. The Lord had made provision for him. Check this out….

17 But I will rescue you on that day, declares the Lord; you will not be given into the hands of those you fear. 18 I will save you; you will not fall by the sword but will escape with your life, because you trust in me, declares the Lord.’” (Jeremiah 39:17-18 NIV)

The Lord has my life in the palm of His hand during any chaotic moments I face. Lately there has been more chaos than I can count. I keep seeking His heart with all of my heart that I may stay calm and connected to Him in the middle of it all. Even when things are calm, I need keep my heart connected to Him. I believe that my heart needs to be devoted to Him prior to chaos so that I can be calm in the middle of it. I do believe that the Lord can be trusted without question to navigate through any situation that I could possibly face.

Pressing On!
