Trust the Father and the dark will lose its terrors

I was reading my simply surrender book this morning and the little journal entry was perfect for where I'm at and what I'm feeling today.

When everything looks black, it is indeed a heavy cross.
But you are not always to blame when this happens.
Do everything to detach yourself from passing cares and then rest assured that your Father will do the rest. He will not allow you to fall into the abyss.
Be of good courage. Do not be afraid of your little failures.
It is folly to pass your time on earth fretting over little things that you cannot change.
Instead rest in the arms of your Father.
Do not be afraid of the dark nor complain that you cannot see him who carries you in his arms.
Trust. The dark will lose its terrors and before long, peace, even joy, will return once more.
Do not be afraid to tell Jesus that you love him, even when you do not actually feel that love.
In this way you will compel him to come to you, and carry you, like the child you will always be,
too weak to walk on your own.

He is good and He is faithful. In this place where everything looks black to me at the moment, I am aware of His presence. I love the line that says "nor complain that you cannot see him who carries you in his arms. Trust." And as you trust, the dark loses its terrors.
