3/1/2024 0 Comments You Are Never AloneIn the midst of our deep pains and hurts, sometimes it is just too much to focus on how our faith is being refined or how our sufferings may one day glorify God or how we may one day comfort someone else. Sometimes we just need to know that God is there, holding us up and carrying us through our pain. Over and over and over throughout the Bible God shows himself to be a loving God and Father. He never leaves us alone to fight on our own or to bear our burdens alone. The Psalms are full of verse after verse that speak to God’s faithfulness, love, and mercy. About how he hears and answers our prayers. About how he is our rock and salvation, covering us with his wings, providing us a place of refuge and comfort. Just a few of those verses are listed above.
Questions for further thought: 1. Do you really believe God is walking with you in the midst of your struggles? 2. Do you believe that God loves and cares for you deeply? Challenge: Take some time to look through the Psalms and find all the times the psalmists reference: God’s steadfast love, his faithfulness, the fact that he hears our prayers, that he is our rock, that he is our refuge, that he is slow to anger, that he is on your side.
