Last night was a whirlwind and I feel God is showing me a new song in life. Then I talk to a dear friend about what God might be showing me and it's fitting that she shared me a devotional she just read...she thought it could apply. Here it is:
He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God; many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD. -Psalm 40:3
Your journey through life is not often easy, and you may experience times when you awaken to find yourself battered and bruised, lost and forsaken, lying helpless along the side of life's road. Your resources gone and your strength spent, you may wonder if there is hope for you. Will anyone come along to help?
God has promised that there is no circumstance from which he cannot rescue you. If you call out to him,he will help you to your feet and provide comfort and support until your wounds heal and you are able to continue on your way. Though the circumstances that caused your fall may still be present, he has promised to walk with you, steadying your feet and filling your heart with hope until you reach your final destination.
I praise you Jesus that when things get difficult or when things seem like there is just no way I'll feel OK again, there is...it's through You and You alone. I praise you for the trails and I praise you for showing me that life is OK to change and change can be OK. I ask that you continually show me that change and trials and struggles are OK because you are working through them and working in me and providing other opportunities. Please help me find joy and strength. I know things will be OK because you are apart of my life (our lives). Continue to work in me.
I have no strength left, God. Life me up and give me new hope as I place my trust in you. Amen.
