ISAIAH 43:1-28
ISAIAH 43:18 "BUT FORGET ALL THAT—
IT IS NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT I AM
GOING TO DO.
ISAIAH 43:19 FOR I AM ABOUT TO DO A BRAND-
NEW THING. SEE, I HAVE ALREADY BEGUN! DO
YOU NOT SEE IT? I WILL MAKE A PATHWAY
THROUGH THE WILDERNESS FOR MY PEOPLE TO
COME HOME. I WILL CREATE RIVERS FOR THEM
IN THE DESERT!
ISAIAH 43:20 THE WILD ANIMALS IN THE FIELDS
WILL THANK ME, THE JACKALS AND OSTRICHES,
TOO, FOR GIVING THEM WATER IN THE
WILDERNESS. YES, I WILL MAKE SPRINGS IN THE
DESERT, SO THAT MY CHOSEN PEOPLE CAN BE
REFRESHED.
LUKE 5:39 BUT NO ONE WHO DRINKS
THE OLD WINE SEEMS TO WANT THE
FRESH AND THE NEW. 'THE OLD IS
BETTER,' THEY SAY. "
PHILIPPIANS 3:13 NO, DEAR BROTHERS AND
SISTERS, I AM STILL NOT ALL I SHOULD BE,
BUT I AM FOCUSING ALL MY ENERGIES ON
THIS ONE THING: FORGETTING THE PAST AND
LOOKING FORWARD TO WHAT LIES AHEAD,
WHO’S IN CONTROL?
DO NOT BE AFRAID FOR GOD IS
WITH YOU.
MY LIFE IS IN THE HAND OF THE CREATOR

HE KNOW’S YOU.
PSALM 139:1-18
MY LIFE IS THE HANDS OF THE SAVIOR.

HE WILL SAVE YOU

FOR THIS YOU SIMPLY REPENT AND PUT
YOUR FAITH IN GOD THROUGH JESUS
CHRIST. ONCE YOU REALIZE WHAT HE
HAS DONE FOR YOU, THAT HE HAS
TRULY FORGIVEN ALL YOUR SINS AND
ACCEPTED YOU AS HIS OWN,
ENTRUSTING YOUR LIFE TO HIM IS THE
NATURAL NEXT STEP. 
MY LIFE IN THE HANDS OF GOD

HE LOVE’S YOU.
HE WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU.
YOU REALIZE THAT SINCE YOU
ARE NOT LIVING FOR YOURSELF,
BUT FOR HIM, HE WILL ALSO TAKE
CARE OF ALL YOUR NEEDS. 
TO BE LOVE AND NOT COMPLETLY KNOWN IS
SUPERFICIAL AND RISKY. TO BE KNOWN AND
NOT LOVE IS SAD. BUT TO BE FULLY KNOWN AND
FULLY LOVED THAT IS SOMETHING ELSE. THAT IS
THE LOVE OF GOD.
BEFORE YOU CAN TRULY GIVE ANY
SITUATION INTO THE HANDS OF GOD,
YOU HAVE TO HAVE GIVEN YOURSELF
INTO HIS HANDS. YOU HAVE TO HAVE
REACHED THE PLACE IN YOUR LIFE
WHERE YOU REALIZE THAT YOU NO
LONGER BELONG TO YOURSELF, BUT YOU
FULLY BELONG TO HIM. 
LETTING GO OF CONTROL OVER YOUR
OWN LIFE IS NOT EASY (UNLESS YOU
TRULY REALIZE WHAT A MESS YOU WERE
MAKING OF IT AND WOULD CONTINUE TO
MAKE OF IT IF YOU KEPT CONTROL OF IT)
GALATIANS 2:20 I MYSELF NO LONGER
LIVE, BUT CHRIST LIVES IN ME. SO I LIVE
MY LIFE IN THIS EARTHLY BODY BY
TRUSTING IN THE SON OF GOD, WHO
LOVED ME AND GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME.
IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT SHOULD BE A
LAST RESORT WHEN ALL ELSE HAVE FAILED.
OR AN EXCUSE NOT TO DO WHAT YOU KNOW
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO DO. SOMETIMES,
GOD WILL TELL YOU TO SIT BACK AND SEE
HIS GLORY DISPLAYED IN HOW HE MAKES
THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE.
