When You Pass Through the Waters

By Jodie Wolfe

When you pass through the waters,
    I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
    they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
    you will not be burned;
    the flames will not set you ablaze.

Isaiah 43:2 (NIV)

The Lord has brought this scripture to my mind many times over the past couple years. Three times we’re told – When you pass through the waters, when you pass through the rivers, and when you walk through the fire. Not IF you pass through these things, but WHEN. In other words, we shouldn’t be surprised by going through difficult times.

I love how the Lord goes beyond all this to say, ‘I will be with you’, and how He won’t allow the river to ‘sweep over you.’ Also, He promises ‘you will not be burned’, and ‘the flames will not set you ablaze.’ What a comfort to know that He will walk with us every step of the way. No matter how much those storms, rivers, or fires rage in our lives.

The Lord continues to teach me this spiritual truth, and definitely did as I was writing my book that just released, Convincing Lou. My heroine, Ellie Lou Williams has had a strong faith throughout my Burrton Springs Series (even though she isn’t mentioned much in the first three books.) 😊 But after facing difficulties and struggles, she’s beginning to doubt the Lord’s faithfulness.

I hope you’ll want to journey along with Ellie Lou and see what happens. Here’s a little bit about my new book.

Blurb

How hard can it be to round up one delinquent groom?

Ellie Lou Williams will do just about anything to save her ranch, even going undercover as a man to round up a fella who is late to his own wedding. The reward will more than cover the money she owes the bank and solve all her problems.

Caleb Dawson agrees to one final job as a deputy US Marshal before he starts his new life away from the trail and tracking criminals. What he isn’t counting on is a mysterious bounty hunter who’s determined to undermine his every step.

Will one reach their goal first? Or will they learn to lean on God and work together?
