Good morning,<\/span><\/p>\n

I just had to share this with you.\u00a0 I just wrote you about my experience Pastor John, but Amy and I talked about it yesterday.\u00a0 I read the tract, “Stand Still in Jordan”* again and this just jumped out at me.\u00a0 God is so good!\u00a0 This just makes my heart jump for joy!\u00a0 I feel like Jesus is saying, “Now Michelle, I have you where I want you.\u00a0 Do not fear, trust me, and rest where you are.”\u00a0 I just feel that all over me!\u00a0 Whew…this is just so good!<\/span><\/p>\n

From the tract:<\/span><\/p>\n

“Now, my Reader, when the winds howl over your Jordan, and the floods come, do you become nervous?\u00a0 Do fear, doubt, and unbelief take away what little peace you do have?\u00a0 We read in 1John 4:18, \u201cThere is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, for fear has to do with punishment,\u00a0and he who fears has not been perfected in love.\u201d Child of God, can\u2019t you perceive that there is perfume in those storms of yours, perfume coming from the flowers on the eternal shore?\u00a0 Can\u2019t you see Christ, our High Priest, stepping down into the raging torrent of life\u2019s voyage and with bruised feet wading out into the waters for you?\u00a0 Oh, how many need to catch a glimpse of this and get ready!<\/span><\/p>\n

“Many floods would flow themselves out without harming us if we thoroughly understood the meaning of the promise of Isaiah 43:2: \u201cWhen you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.\u201d\u00a0 How many times have we given up and failed to win a great victory, when only a few more moments would have ended the fury of turbulent Jordan!<\/span><\/p>\n

“Let us not fail to notice the word ‘rest’, as used here.\u00a0 The feet of the priests had to ‘rest’ in the waters before the crossing could get under way.\u00a0 Beloved, are you too restless or nervous for God to manifest Himself mightily to you?\u00a0 Would you like to know the calmness of resting in the swelling streams of life?\u00a0 If so, God will show you how.\u00a0 He can pile the flood up in a heap.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
