Think of His Goodness
Psalm 30:5
" For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning."
These days, we see many things taking place; lose of love ones, lose of love, lose of faith, lose of understanding.... Sometimes, we just need a word to help us go on a little bit further. When depression and suffering seems to fill your day, you feel you take one step forward, only to get knocked two steps back....When you seem to have more month than money....How do you continue to trust God, when it seems everything around you is going bad?
Be encouraged, because we run across a scripture like, Psalm 30:5 that says His anger is only for a moment. His favor is forever. Weeping may endure for a night.
Yes, even in the Bible, it tells us that we can go ahead and weep. But, in the morning, your joy will come.
A good thing I realized about the scripture is, the day and night is not actually talking about sun up and sun down. It's actually talking about the ups and downs going on in your heart.
When I thought of this scripture, it reminded me of the hymn, Think of His Goodness. It says, "When waves of affliction sweep over your soul and sunlight is hidden from view, whenever you're tempted to fret or complain, just think of His goodness to you."
So, whenever you feel depressed, think of His goodness. Whenever you feel lonely, think of His goodness.
So, I leave this thought with you today....you're only a thought away from a good day. No matter how bad things may be in the earthly world, tap into your spiritual world and realize that even though it may be your time, it just might not be your turn. Remember, things have not always been this way. So, take some time out to think of His goodness.
DAILY LOVE FROM HIM ABOVE
