It’s good to remember that whether we’re up or whether we’re down our God remains the same. His love for us is constant, it knows no variables. It just IS. I’m so thankful for that because we all have days when we’re less than cheerful, days when we feel a bit gloomy for some reason, but underneath all of that, for the believer, there is the joy of knowing God is still with us, still loving us, still cheering us on because His plan and purpose for us has never changed.
We all know our feelings can change in an instant so they’re not really worth listening to very much, they’re so unreliable, but our God is totally reliable and we can run to Him to lift us back up, for strength and courage, for comfort or any other thing, whenever we need it. I hope that helps and encourages someone today.
We all know where negative feelings come from and we all know the way to deal with them is to remind the enemy he’s a defeated foe, he’s under our feet, to resist him and tell him to GO!
Even though God knows absolutely everything about us, He is, and always will be for us not against us. One of the keys I’ve found helpful is to take our eyes off ourselves and put them back on our amazing God and His amazing grace and thank Him for bothering with us at all! The lovely thing is, He wants to bother with us because we matter to Him so much. Reading Psalm 139 is so helpful because it reminds us how involved with us God is.😊
v.17 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!
Take heart today my friend, and don’t let the enemy deceive you or bring you down because with God all things are possible, He loves you and He fully intends to finish what He started in all of us, for His glory. Amen.
