Tuesday Truth - God is with you in your distress
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
— 1 Corinthians 10:31
Many of us struggle at times with the stresses of life. Or the random circumstances that bring pain, sorrow, sadness, or confusion. Whether it is things in our control like how we handled a situation, what we said to someone, or where we decided to go. Or if it is things out of our control like decisions by local, regional, or national governments. But there is stress in life!!
Yet, God being sovereign over all things says to us "I'm with you." (see: Psalm 59:16)
16 But I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress.
This is such a powerful promise that God HAS BEEN (and will be) a fortress for us, and a place of refuge during our distress. We can trust Him and count on Him! He is able.
