“The clouds cover the sun, but the sun is still there. And there are seasons of our life that can be covered in darkness, but the SON is still there.”
Wow, isn’t that true? Our lives are not always sunny. We have dark times, and during those times, it’s easy to feel like Jesus doesn’t hear us, but He does.
Scripture reminds us, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18)
Have you ever felt like the pain was too much to bear? Have you cried until you ran out of tears?
It’s important to remember that Jesus understands our pain and suffering. All those tears are liquid prayers that flow right to the heart of God.
Remember, we can’t see the whole picture. On this side of heaven, we cannot comprehend everything happening behind the scenes.
1 Corinthians 3:12 says, Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity.
We only see a small part of what God is doing in our lives, and often it doesn’t make sense.
- Why did I lose someone I love?
- Why is my child suffering?
- Why am I having health issues?
- Why did they hurt me?
I love this quote by John Piper, “Occasionally weep deeply over the life you hoped would be. Grieve the losses. Then wash your face. Trust God and embrace the life you have.”
We can face tomorrow because tomorrow is in His hands…
