Psalm 13:6
I trust in your faithfulness. Grant my heart joy in your help, that I may sing of the Lord, “How good our God has been to me!”

It’s easy to praise God when things are going our way and we are filled with wonderful feelings…but what about when things are not going our way and we are heart-broken and in pain? If God is Love then we know that God does not feel joy when we are suffering. Many believe that God actually suffers with us. Jesus showed us that God is faithful even through dark times and feelings of abandonment. Resurrection followed the crucifixion. Death did not win. New Life awaits us on the other side of any pain or suffering. Jesus showed us the way. Cling to the risen Christ. You are in the process of rebirth! Be present to the moment…without pining over the past or fretting over the future. Open yourself to God’s unconditional Love and direction right now. Let go…and know that God is holding you. Your Loving Creator can never let you go…because that would not be love…would it?
