God uis faithful and never leaves us nor forsakes us. Sometimes we need the ability to look back down the road to realize just how much He really has been with us.
Isn't that the truth! I was just telling AG that a few days ago. Sometimes when we are going through a trial or just a hard time, we need to look back and see what God has done in our life!

You see God's Will when you look behind you...

Awesome! Be thankful it is behind you and not in front of you. Israel saw the wilderness behind them but it sure beat seeing war in their midst that would have caused them to return to Egypt.

God has a direction He is leading you and it isn't backwards. Trust Him. The Shepherd always sees farther from His higher perspective than you do from your ground level perspective.

It's hard to see God's will sometimes when we're in the battle...but, after the dust has settled, and the way is clear- we see WHY God brought us through, in the way that He did...

This too shall pass....*smile* Really.
