Day 12

Psalm 34:19 ~ “The Lord’s people may suffer a lot, but He will always bring them safely through.” (GNT)

Before I was a saved, I was under the assumption that Christians had the “upper hand” in life. Being God’s chosen people certainly must come with all sorts of perks. Imagine my surprise when I finally did accept Christ, seems to me like I started to have MORE problems!  We go through so much; it’s hard not to question God. Especially when we see those who don’t know Him living what we assume to be the good life. This verse reminds us of two things. Storms will come, it’s inevitable, and we will go through some tough times. BUT, He promises to bring us through it….SAFELY! It may seem like you can’t make it or it’s just too much to bear, but trust me, you’re stronger than you think. He knows what He’s put in you, that is everything you need to be able to withstand the pressures of life. Take comfort in the fact that no matter how bad it gets He’s there to carry you through. He won’t leave you, He won’t forsake you!
