If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
1 Corinthians 15:19
Hello again (finally)! I apologize for the very long break. To be honest, I’ve been struggling a bit lately. The knee issue that I thought was mostly resolved came back and ended up being more complicated and something without a complete medical remedy. And I’ve been frustrated about not being able to do everything I want and being even slower than usual. On top of all that, Little Bit is going through some crazy stage that’s about to get the best of me. Of course, I’ve been wondering about the “why?” and “what next?” and feeling pretty sorry for myself.
And then I read. When I compare my woes to Paul’s list in II Corinthians Chapter 11, I am ashamed to even say I have troubles. And his account of the thorn in his flesh in Chapter 12 reminds me that when I’m weak, God is strong. And then the account of Paul’s shipwreck in Acts 27 and 28 shows how God uses dire circumstances to put us right where we need to be.
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Romans 8:28
So, this post is a reminder to myself (and anyone else who is struggling) that there is help for anything and everything in the Lord. He can do what no man can ever do and has the master plan for it all. I just have to trust Him and remember that this life is not the one that will last forever.
My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
Psalm 121:2
Here are a couple songs that help me through tough times. Hope they help you! And most importantly, I hope you have Jesus to help you!!
