As the LORD lives,
who has redeemed my soul
out of every adversity....
1 Kings 1. 29
(God has given each of us
a chronicle of
His faithfulness for us.
Not just looking backwards,
but forwards,
and even in this
particular situation facing us.
We approach these difficulties
with a different heart,
knowing that nothing is
beyond His grace,
goodness and power.
This much we can
stake our lives on:
because God lives.
We need not live
as if He does not.
God redeems not only
our hard stuff and messes,
but our very lives.
Despair is not part
of His equation.
Sometimes redeeming appears
in unexpected
and totally unlikely ways.
Most times emerging in ways
we never may see
in this lifetime.
He redeems every adversity
across eternity
and sings His grace over more people
than we can count.)
O LORD,
As You live,
and because You live,
we are not alone.
Nothing but nothing
can separate us from You.
Create something new
out of these hard things
we face today.
Grant to us Your strength
not only to face
what we cannot bear on our own,
but rely on You through it.
You don't just redeem situations.
You redeem souls.
Draw us to You today.
