Some days life is hard to take…

Some times when I am having a bad day, all I can do is sit and dwell on it. I pray and ask God to help me be thankful in every situation. That is HARD to do. But, I know that God is God and He is sovereign. He knows all, sees all and understands all. Even when I think this is all I can bear, God carries me. At that point, I may not even notice but I know it is happening because God said He wouldn’t put more than I could bear upon us. He sustains me. Life sometimes hands out hardships. It seems like mine has been ongoing for three years. I can only pray that I see some light soon. I was listening to a song by Natalie Grant called “HELD”. Some of the words are true and ministering. I know that this life is not promised without tribulations or horrors. If that were so, Job would not have gone through what he did. But in the end God delivered him and blessed him with more than he had in the first place. Psalms 34:19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all

Partial words : Natalie Grant Song. HELD
Who told us we’d be rescued?What has changed and why should we be saved from nightmares?We’re asking why this happensTo us who have died to live?It’s unfair.Chorus:This is what it means to be held.How it feels when the sacred is torn from your lifeAnd you survive.This is what it is to be loved.And to know that the promise wasWhen everything fell we’d be held.This hand is bitterness.We want to taste it, let the hatred NUMB our sorrow.The wise hands opens slowly to lilies of the valley and tomorrow.Bridge:If hope is born of suffering.If this is only the beginning.Can we not wait for one hour watching for our Savior?
