“Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget
not all his benefits -“ Psalm 103:2
If your staggering through the deepest
valley in the day, look up you can still view the sun. At night you
can still gaze at the sun's reflection in the moon. Wherever you are
in life, no matter your situation, God is with you. When we go
through hard times, we can remember Christ's presence in our lives in
times past. We can remember when God intersected us at our point of
need.
We can remember times that He has
forgiven us and caused our guilt to melt away. We can remember when
God provided for us or when he exchanged our sickness for His health.
The Lord is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He will come
through for us again, but we must continue to stride through the
valley, even if it is a wasteland, knowing that God will bring us
back to the mountaintop.
In the midst of our sorrow, let praise
be heard once again. Let's praise the Lord for his goodness and for
the times He has come through for us. Let's also praise Him in
expectation of His miracles.
You must know that God is good and He
wants only the best for you. What He has begun in you He will
finish. He is crafting you and shaping you to reflect Christ more
vividly. Then He will use you more powerfully.
Let's keep up the pace in the valley
and allow God to bring us to a spacious place. He is faithful and He
will do it.
