If a family member is going on a trip, we may ask them to text us when they arrive safe and sound. It puts our mind at ease to know that our loved ones have ended up where they intended to go.
A craving for safety and wholeness is at the heart of so many people’s actions. Trusting that God, good, is omnipresent and omnipotent helps dissolve any anxiety that comes from wondering if we’ve “done enough” to keep ourselves or others safe and sound. We begin to realize that divine assurances of our wholeness come in fresh forms each day.
