Sometimes the seasons of life can be hard. We may feel tired and weary. We may feel beaten down and discouraged. Sometimes the struggles in life can make us feel lonely and we wonder if things will ever get better. We all have troubles and struggles in life. We all go through things and some of those things are really hard and challenging.
The Lord Jesus told us that in this world that we would indeed have trouble, but He also said that we should take heart because He has overcome the world. Troubles will come to us as we all know, but we don't have to encounter those troubling times on our own. We believers in Jesus Christ have His promise that He will be with us through our troubles. We believers in Jesus Christ have the Holy Spirit dwelling within us and He will lead us and guide us no matter what difficulties we face.
I recently read about someone who was facing a hard season in life and I would have to agree with her that I too am finding this season of my life hard and even lonely, but I am thankful that I have the same hope that she has. I have hope in the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is my Lord and Savior.
I am thankful for all the Lord has done for me and all that He will do in the future. The journey that we are on may get tough and troubling, but I am thankful that God isn't finished with me yet. God has a purpose and plan for our lives. We may not always see or know what exactly the Lord is doing in our lives, but we know that He is working out all things for our good in accordance to His purpose and His will.
We need to learn to praise the Lord in the storms of life and also in the smooth joyous times of life as well. Times are hard, but God is still good and we can trust Him. Sometimes trusting can be difficult. Sometimes things just don't make sense to us. We must realize that God knows exactly what He is doing and He knows what needs to take place in our lives to prepare us for the next step that He has planned for us to take.
We must continue to walk by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and trust Him more. I am weak and fail a lot at things. I know that God is strong and all things are possible with Him. I am thankful that I don't have to walk this journey alone because I know that the Lord is with me each step of the way and also their are fellow Christians all over praying for me and I praying for them as well.
We don't always know what lies around the next corner. We don't know what tomorrow will bring, but I am thankful I know the One who holds my tomorrow.
Lord,
We praise Your Name.
You are Holy.
We ask that You help us keep our focus on You during the hard times of life.
We are frail and weak, but You are strong.
Lead us and may Your will be done in our lives.
I uplift all of those who are facing hard times and feel lonely.
Come soon Lord Jesus.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
