In all things, let us praise Him and always trust in Him

God’s Grip

Even as followers of Christ, we will experience trouble and difficulties. As a matter of fact, trials many times are more challenging just because of who we are spiritually. However, as this morning’s message reminds us, “It's not as if God didn't see ahead to our life-distorting events. No difficulty we face comes as a surprise to Him. The Omniscient One is aware of all that lies in our futures; but charitably, He does not give us warning. He knows we'd only fuss and worry or try to work things out for ourselves and land ourselves in even bigger trouble.” God holds us by our hand and walks with us through ever situation. Look back over your life—that’s how you have made it through.

Isaiah 41:13 reads, “For I hold you by your right hand—I, the Lord your God. And I say to you, 'Don't be afraid. I am here to help you.'"

In all things, and in particular in trials and tribulations, we must trust in Him and know He has gone before us, is beside us, and will stand behind us on the other side.

Small Straws Scripture: Psalm 61:1-2

Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth I will cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Let us remember that our Savior is our only true saving grace in all of life’s difficult situations.

Youversion Verse of the Day: 1 Chronicles 16:34

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.

Let us forever be grateful to the fact that His love and mercy for us never ceases and we can always depend upon Him.

In all things, let us praise Him and always trust in Him, my friend.🙏🏽💚🦋🌈
