In the Fire
“Can you think of a time when you felt all alone in a trial?…
This is a discouraging place to be for sure. There’s nothing joyful about suffering alone. Knowing that someone stands with you can make all the difference.
There is something that all Christ followers need to understand, which will enable them to live joyfully regardless of their circumstances: we have a Savior who never leaves our side…
Think about the times you thought you were alone. How would your perspective have changed if you realized that the wave-calming, grave-conquering Messiah was standing shoulder to shoulder with you? This knowledge is key to walking with joy through drought and through storm.
Lord, You’re beside me in every fire I face. Thank You for never allowing me to endure a trial alone.” (Joyful)
