6.20.23 - Psalm 115:12-13
It's hard to see the gift or opportunity in difficulty. So, start small. What is a small difficulty you're facing today and what might you learn from it by seeing it through faith?
The Lord has been mindful of us; they will bless us;
they will bless the house of Israel;
they will bless the house of Aaron;
They will bless those who fear the Lord,
both small and great.
Although at times, we may feel disconnected from God, the Creator will always be there.
Trust in the Lord as our help and shield and we will be protected and cared for.
Trust that we will be saved from the temporary dangers of our self-doubt.
God will lift us and be our guide as we travel through hard-times.
Although we will be shielded and guided, we all must learn how to face difficult circumstances in life.
This may cause us to feel as though God does not care. But on the contrary, by faith, we will see, in time, obstacles in our paths as opportunities to grow and learn.
It's hard to see the gift or opportunity in difficulty. So, start small. What is a small difficulty you're facing today and what might you learn from it by seeing it through faith?
