Sometimes there are things we can’t even utter with our mouths. All we can do is cry, and it’s very okay to cry.
There are times when you think the situation is getting better, only for it to get worse. There are times when our health fails us, marriages fail, we lose a loved one, close friends betray us, our spouse abuses or cheats on us, or things don’t go as planned, or as many would say, life happened.
There are sleepless nights, pain that no medication can numb, and situations that are beyond one’s control. There are times when all we can do is scream and say, “Lord, where are You? How long?”
The presence of trials does not mean the absence of God’s presence. And the fact that we survived what could have destroyed us is proof that God has been with us.
Sometimes, those we think smile the most actually cry the most behind closed doors, and those who seem to have it all together may, unknown to us, have things falling apart in their lives.
In the midst of all these, I remain with the words of David in the Psalms: “I would have despaired, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living” (Psalm 27:13).
The ugly circumstances and situations will not see your end; instead, you will see their end. You will not be defeated by circumstances; you will rise above them.
In this land of the living, you will have a story to tell and a testimony to share.
God will heal and restore you in such a way that you won’t look like what you’ve been through.
God will perfect all that concerns you and give you rest on every side. Nothing concerning your life will be left unattended, and the goodness, mercy, favor, and blessings of God will be evident in every area of your life.
This too shall pass…….
