I find hope in the Bible when
I ponder and dwell on
the brutally transparent struggles David faced and described in
the Psalms.
Here are 2 keys shared in David's psalms, received through his trials and troubles.
Humility: Nothing good was in David, apart from God. (Ps 16:2) Same is true
of me.
Brokenness: David wrote a lot about his brokenness. He was misunderstood,
betrayed, and endured much unfairness. Those trials taught him that God’s close
to the broken. (Ps 34:18)
Now, I don’t often think
of trials as gifts. However, God offers us these same 2 keys to His heart
through each struggle we face. Hmmm... that's something to consider.
Abba God, I’m not so thankful for the struggles, but I’m grateful for
the gifts which lead me closer to You. Thank You for loving me enough to lead
me through the struggles and bring good out of each one. Thank You for helping
me endure. You’re so good to me. In Jesus’ name…
