Sometimes I wonder if we think our lives this side of eternity is to be trouble/problem free. Words like “fear not”, “I will strengthen you”, “take refuge in You”, “nor did their own are save them”, “strong support”, “hide me in the shadow of your wings”, all indicate and confirm times of problems and trials happen to all of us this side of eternity. Yet God is all seeing and knowing and there is nothing His eyes do not see. In these times we are not alone. We have GOD who is with us and will protect us. It is in these times we feel alone but we are not. He is there. In these times call out to God and trust in His might power to help. Trust and hope and rejoice, for He will never leave us or forsake us. We don’t have to go it alone.
