The last few months I have had troubles with low iron and blood pressure. Just when I've thought that it was all better, it would come back again. I have gone to the doctor many times, and this week they gave me an iron transfusion. The last few days, I have had chest pain aswell. I got it checked just to be safe and it was nothing to worry about. I don't know about you, but not feeling right has a way of making me nervous! Very nervous!
I really hope I will feel my normal self again soon and not have dizzy spells etc. And hopefully I will. But I realized in my fearful moments, that what I really want is to have peace and to feel God's nearness and presence. To not feel afraid.
That is what really matters. We can't always take away our problems, and God doesn't always take them away for us. But no matter what happens, we can have peace. Even if He doesn't calm the storm, He can calm us.
Notice what Psalm 46:1-3 says
God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
Therefore will we not fear,
though the earth be removed,
and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea.
Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,
though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.
God can give you peace even if your circumstances do not change. What matters most is that you are in His presence.
