O God, give me strength. How often have you prayed for God's help? Sometimes pain or loss seems so constant that we wonder when we ever had a chance to breath. We are not the only one in time or on earth that has had to live in search of God and His blessings.
"Though He slay me, I will hope in Him" Job 13:15.
Can you think of anyone more committed to God? Job had lost his children, all his possessions, his workers, and his health, but he refused to abandon faith in God. He was determined to hold on because he trusted the Lord to do right.
Unwavering commitment to trust the Lord in all situations is a cornerstone of unshakable faith. There we can focus our eyes upon God alone.
We have something Job did not have, we have Scripture, the written Word of God; and that Scripture reveals God's nature and promises. It is a wise believer who claims those promises when enduring hardship. We know that our God is good, always just, always faithful and always trustworthy.
Let us take our eyes off the day to day activity and concentrate on honoring Him and following in His way, that we may find a consistent peace that carries us through the bounty of His love and the loss of everything we hold dear.
