Seen Too Much to Question God in This

 

Therefore that place was called

      the Rock of Escape.

                 1 Samuel 23. 28

(Sometimes we find ourselves

     not just in difficult circumstances,

     but as David discovered,

literally between

             a rock and a hard place.

But David once again

     trusted God.

David had seen too much

       to question God in this.

We can too.

We know God specializes in

        impossible situations

   that we may know Him more.

And God reveals Himself in ways

   not able to occur or even exist

   without divine intervention.

His glory is evident

   and beyond explanation,

             if not for His hand.

We can look to Him

   not just for deliverance,

but to experience yet another

          story of His faithfulness.

Sometimes His deliverance

    takes the form of escape.

Sometimes God keeps us

             right where we are.

Trust Me in this.)

O LORD,

You did not promise us

       an easy life,

but that You are with us

      in this broken world.

You grant us Your strength.

You help us to see

      differently in tight places.

You bring Your glory to this.

Please help us

      to be faithful to You

even today,

even between this rock

   and hard place.

We find You already here.
