Greetings to all, on this "hump" day Wednesday, let us trust the Lord today for strength in our weakness and continued hope to get through our pain. Amen
Life is full of challenging times that cause so much pain. Pain is that thing that most of us do our best to avoid and even run away from. When going through difficult and painful times, we can often feel isolated and disconnected from God.
Lamentations 3:56-57 (MSG)
56 You listened when I called out, 'Don't shut your ears! Get me out of here! Save me!'
57 You came close when I called out. You said, 'It's going to be all right.'
Romans 15:1-3 (MSG)
1 Those of us who are strong and able in the faith need to step in and lend a hand to those who falter, and not just do what is most convenient for us. Strength is for service, not status.
2 Each one of us needs to look after the good of the people around us, asking ourselves, "How can I help?"
3 That's exactly what Jesus did. He didn't make it easy for himself by avoiding people's troubles, but waded right in and helped out. "I took on the troubles of the troubled," is the way Scripture puts it.
Lesson: As we push through the pain of life, let us keep our focus on the promises of God to be with us, knowing that it's going to be all right.
Many tend to avoid the pain and trouble of others in the world. But not our God, He promises to be with us.
