I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.
Psalms 94:18-19
So many things in our life threatens to bring us down. Maybe it is an ending of a relationship, or failing an exam. Maybe you didn't get that job you really wanted or maybe you feel alone in a world where everyone seems to have someone. Maybe your family seems to have raised against you. Maybe you feel like God has abandoned you out in the wilderness, like a malformed wild animal. Sometimes that firm foundation you are standing on is slick from rain and if you even breathe you might slip and fall into the cracks, be lost forever in the darkness.
It is natural to feel like this sometimes. But God is always near by. When we feel broken and falling into the depths, God is right below us to catch us. In every dark moment in life, God will send a light for you. He will fill your heart with hope and cheer. The psalmist said The LORD is our fortress so when times are hard, we can fall back into his strong arms deep inside His fortress and be safe. When the storms hit us, the winds break even the strongest of trees, laying the country side in ruins, we can rest assured that God has his arms around us. He will whisper his love into your ear, filling you with comfort only He could give.
Lord, renew me with your hope and cheer. Fill me with your unfailing love and remind me to fall back into your fortress when times are hard.
