It is I. Do not be afraid(john 6:20). Jesus wants to speak these words to
you every time he reveals something new about who he is or what he wants
to do in your life. He wants you to focus on who he is, even as he
catches you off guard. He is all powerful, all knowing, all sufficient,
always good, always loving, always merciful, always just. Sometimes God
allows things to happen that redirect the paths of our lives. Sometimes
he invites us to find him in unusual places or unexpected people.
Sometimes he is “hidden in plain sight” in unlikely circumstances. Any
of these can be just as bewildering and unsettling as seeing Jesus
walking on water. And when it happens, we need to trust that the One
who is good and loving and kind and powerful and sufficient for
everything is with us. He will never leave us!
