The Goodness of the Lord

Have you had one of those days when you are in awe of the goodness of God? Thinking and pondering through our life's circumstances, we can see the hand of God always at our side. Sometimes we feel like God is so far away, but He never leaves our side.

When I look back over the many times in my life, when life seemed so unfair, I can now see how God was faithful to sustain me. He provided all I needed in that moment. I may have been confused about what I thought I needed with what I actually wanted, but He always took care of me.

God's ways are sometimes hard to understand...it is like when we try to teach our children something - they may not be willing at first, but our intentions as parents is only for their success and well-being. How much more does our Heavenly Father care for us?

We may not feel comfortable when we get "squeezed" and go through the tough times, but He is faithful to help us through if we are willing to trust in Him. Do you trust Him to take care of you?

Reflect on your life...Remember the times the Lord brought you through a circumstance where you thought there was no hope...Be Thankful today that He continues to care for you!
