- In times of trouble and distress we must take our eyes off our situation and look to the LORD, remembering God’s unwavering faithfulness to us throughout our lives. His faithfulness in the past is a great encouragement for us in the present. He has a specific purpose and plan for our lives, a purpose that He initiated as He formed us in our mothers’ wombs. He will complete that purpose (Philippians 1:6).
- God never promises to spare us from difficulties; in fact, He warns us that trials and persecution will be a part of our lives. But as with David, all of our trials contribute to His purpose. He uses them to accomplish His work through us and in us. He works all of our circumstances together for our good and for His ultimate purpose for us: that we be conformed to the image of His dear Son (Romans 8:28-29).
Because he lives I can face tomorrow
Because he lives all fear is gone
Because I know, I know he holds the future
And life is worth the living just because he lives
