Watchmen on the wall


"If we would accept that God can be entirely trusted, and that what we do not know is full of wonder, than we could trade in our anxiety for anticipation. Because if we are fearful over what we do not know, than here's what we're doing; fear that is laden with anxiety says we are expecting something from satan more than we are from God. God does not give us a spirit of fear. When we're anxious and full of fear about the future, we are more frightened of what the enemy has lying in wait for us than we are of was God has for us. A watchman on the wall is full of hope, because he knows it's a matter of time. What is yet to be revealed is going to be worth the wait, and it will come with the exhileration and thrill of expectancy. We need to make the willfull decision: I will trade in my anxiety for anticipation, and sit like a watchman on the wall who says, 'my King, my King cometh.'" - Beth Moore
