So we travel on these motorcyles called boda-bodas here. I was on my way back from town yesterday, riding on the back of one of these boda-bodas. I have been struggling this week with the attacks of the enemy and immensely discouraged. I have heard lies and some what believed them. Yesterday though, I felt God's presence so near to me...so on my way back I was just thanking him for his goodness. Sometimes the boda's are a bit dangerous because of the strange men who drive you, but for some reason, I felt really safe with the man I was with. Right then and there, God spoke very clearly to me. He said, "Katie, today I am your driver. I am the driver of your life, and I will NOT let you crash and burn. I am safe, I am trustworthy." As my tired and restless spirit finally felt relief from his loving words, I looked up and saw a rainbow. It was beautiful and brillant. Then I heard my Heavenly Father say to me, "This is my sign of peace to you. Peace my daughter, I will never leave you nor forsake you."
When you feel heavy burdened or hopeless, remember these words that Jesus said to me. They are not only for this girl in Uganda, but for everyone in this world. Praise God. He brings the message of hope and peace. "Perfect love casts out fear." Be at peace, for he is your driver...if you would just give him the keys.
