I have tasted and I have seen that the Lord is good!! Yes, every. step. with. Him. is. GOOD.
At certain times, when things haven't made sense and when pain & suffering seemed to have no end....I see now more clearly God's constant goodness. Anything that is hard and difficult is a GOOD thing because it makes us rely on Him all the more!
And I want to live a life, a faith where it's less about me and ALL about Him. As Spurgeon has said, "I have learned to kiss the wave that slams me to the Rock of Ages" Thank you Lord for the hard places....its there that I see You more clearly.
It's there that You are fashioning me to have MORE of You.
It's there in those hard places that you strip away my self-reliance and nurture a heart to depend upon You alone.
It's there that I find myself satisfied...truly satisfied in Christ alone.
What about you? What difficulty is God calling you to trust Him with today?
Call out to Him in prayer this morning and steady your feet on His promises to you:
Those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. Psalm 34:10
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good. Romans 8:28
He leads me in paths of righteousness for His Names sake. Psalm 23:3
Steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts the Lord. Psalm 32:10
Beloved, let your eyes behold Your God this morning and be truly satisfied in Him alone.
Together for His glory,
Louise
