Our safety – indeed, our very existence – is in God’s hands. We must live by faith and not by sight. What seems impossible to us is possible for our Creator. None of us know with certainty where we will be living a year from now – or even a month or a week from now. But if we are truly the bond-slaves of Jesus Christ, we know we will be going where Christ wants us to be.
When God calls us, we have free moral agency and can choose to serve Him or not. We can remain in our comfort zones, or place our trust in Christ’s guidance as our shepherd and protector. Jesus said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel’s, who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time – houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions – and in the age to come, eternal life” (Mark 10:29-30).
