"Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, “It is the Lord,” he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred yards."
JOHN 21:7-8
In crisis, I seek Jesus. In the not knowing, I seek Jesus. His peace - his plan. His sovereign perfect will is always in place. He is literally all in all. The truth - the way - the life. Along the way with Jesus, he holds your hand and loves you. He is next to you - in you. A living true God. Be not abandoned unless you are rightly so to Jesus.
There is no life or choice without him. To choose Jesus is a choice, like any other tangible thing. Choose the only living God - the one righteous king - Lord Jesus in all things.
There are times of crisis where you completely abandon everything else. The entirety of focus becomes centralized on the crisis. Be abandoned to the living God of Love, Christ Jesus in all things. But let the choice of Jesus not be based on emotion. Emotion will not carry you through, but rather a mindful decision to see and seek Jesus in all things.
