Day 11 - (Today’s Bible readings: Isaiah 31:1-9; Psalm 10; John 6:1-21)
GOD IS WITH YOU EVEN WHEN LIFE GOES SOUTH
“Why, O Lord, do you stand far away? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?” (Psalm 10:1 ESV)
There are times in life when we wonder where God is. The troubles of the day seems so monumental that we hardly think that we can make it. And that is actually a good thing. We need to learn to rely on God and not our ourselves. The good news is that God is always with us; that is His promise:
“I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Hebrews 13:5 ESV)
This is a promise we need to remember. There are many other promises of God that help us see He is still with us when life goes south.
“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28 ESV)
Lord, thank You for always being with me, especially when things are rough. Remind me that You have the best in mind for me and that I can trust You no matter what. In Jesus’ saving name. Amen.
“See” you in church tomorrow!
