How wonderful God is. How He knows exactly what we need and He brings it to us through people, a song, or something I printed off of my e-mail. Here is another gentle reminder that God is there In every circumstance.
As we consider the perplexing nature of circumstances in the world, (divorce, singleness, sickness, debt), we are tempted to lose heart, perhaps to question whether God is really in control. Through so many different circumstances, God has kept trying to show me that it is Him that is really in control. Through a parasite in Guatemala, engaging with a married man, or a maxed out credit card b/c of your worthless purchases, friends not being there when you really need it, God is ever present. He will never leave me nor forsake me. It's one things to read it and then another to have to live it.
Psalm 9:1, 9,10
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart;
I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.
I will be glad and exalt in you;
I will singe praise to your name, O Most High.
The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble and those who know Your Name put their trust in you, For You, O Lord, haven't forsaken those who seek you.
Lord, at times I just want you to wrap your arms around me and to feel your presence. I pray that in the times when you are quiet or don't feel near, I will remember the times when you were carrying me.
Amen.
