Confident Assurance

Proverbs 3:21-26:

21 My son, do not lose sight of these—keep sound wisdom and discretion,
22 and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck.
23 Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble.
24 If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror or of the ruin of the wicked, when it comes,
26 for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught.

This assurance of care should help us in when we lose sleep and worry about the future. Our confidence is not in our own strength or in our own foresight, it's in God's good plan. He will give us the wisdom we seek, he will protect our path, he will keep us from ruin. We have nothing to fear.
