You are my Father, and You love me enough to train me and remake me.
It’s an opportunity to gird up our heart and reach for renewed strength as we say, “Lord, life has thrown me a curve, but even so I praise Your name. When we are confronted with disappointment, we find hope by looking up. He refines us through every part of the journey. Then when we reach the mountaintops, our memory of the valleys prompts us to praise the God who faithfully leads us. In the valleys of life, it’s important to remember God’s goodness and His faithfulness. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness, You have turned for me my mourning into dancing Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His,Īnd give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. O Lord, You brought my soul up from the grave I will extol You, O Lord, for You have lifted me up,Īnd have not let my foes rejoice over me. The Lord knows the way through the wilderness. He doesn’t enjoy our pain, but He delights in our tighter embrace. The quietness of the desert allows us to get to know Him better, with more depth and fulfillment.

So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,īecause Your lovingkindness is better than life, Psalm 13-For when we feel like God has forgotten us: He is the One we call to and the One worthy of our praise. God enables those around us to support us, yet it is His work. As we cry out, He may speak to us through other people, through our quiet times in the Word or prayer, or a still small voice when we least expect it. God often encourages us, guides us, and upholds us through other believers, but our first call for help goes to Him. The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming inįrom this time forth, and even forevermore. The Lord shall preserve you from all evil The Lord is your shade at your right hand. He is our refuge, our strength, and our salvation. When it feels like the world is against us (and maybe it is!), we know that God never walks away from us or fails us. But in the midst of it all, God invites us to acknowledge the weight of our pain and suffering before Him. In fact, Jesus instructed His disciples to expect them.
