Proverbs 14: 32 When
calamity comes, the wicked are brought down,
but even in death the righteous seek refuge in God.
but even in death the righteous seek refuge in God.
============
Exhausted was the only way I could describe this particular
year. Two broken cars, failing grades, girlfriend trouble, and a job cleaning
toilets. Some people said, “Let’s go hang out in another city.” I knew what “hang
out” meant so I said “of course!”
- When things got rough I sought relief.
- When things got tough I sought an instant way out of the pain.
- When things got harsh I sought a group who could make me laugh for only a moment.
We didn’t get into any wildness that weekend. Some would say
it was fate. BUT GOD changed the circumstances such that we would not do
anything outrageous. It was a much needed outing and I returned with my mind
refreshed. During that time GOD actually said “I have a different way for you.”
- GOD wants me to seek HIM when problems arise.
- GOD wants me to seek HIS face when issues flow.
- GOD wants me to seek the kingdom when troubles knock on my door.
Life is never guaranteed. One minute I have been on top and
the next on the bottom. BUT GOD has shown me that HE is faithful no matter
where I am. HE loves me dearly and protects me through trouble and pain. HE
feels worse that I do when I hurt and wants me to see relief. No matter what I’m
going through I seek GOD.
- Are you seeking relief from your situation?
- Have you sinned while seeking relief?
- Will you allow GOD to clean up your mess?
- Will you allow HIM to truly change your heart?
