Scripture and a Snapshot - I Will Remember


I cried out to God for help;
I cried out to God to hear me.
When I was in distress, I sought the Lord;
at night I stretched out untiring hands,
and I would not be comforted.

Then I thought, "To this I will appeal:
the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
I will remember the deeds of the LORD;
yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
 I will consider all your works
and meditate on all your mighty deeds."

~Psalm 77:1-2, 10-12~


When we're going through a rough patch, whether serious or momentary, we have a tendency to feel sorry for ourselves or to focus mostly on the things that are going wrong in our lives. It happens. We're human and when we are in distress, it can be all-consuming. We might even act like we don't want to be comforted! But when we are willing to think about God's faithfulness and reflect upon all that he has done for us and all the promises he has kept through the ages, our perspective can be changed. We can be comforted, and we can find peace even in the midst of heartache - when we seek the Lord and meditate on all his works.

  4. On the down days, I do tend to have to do that and remind that even when not aware, the Lord has done many good things in my life. Thanks for the reminder.
