Every now and then I need a quick thought or verse or word to get me through a difficult moent. I don't need a lecture....a counseling session...or to be preached at! Last summer I heard this verse quoted -- it has been a great help when I needed a divine cup of water to cool a dry soul.....
Psalm 27:13..... "I WOULD HAVE DESPAIRED.....UNLESS I BELIEVED....THAT I WOULD SEE....THE GOODNESS OF THE LORD.....IN THE LAND OF THE LIVING!"
Despair is a reality.....what are you troubled by today....what difficult situation are you trying to navigate around?
My beliefs affect my behavior....what do I truly believe in...God is good!!
I would see...an emphatic word....a guarentee!
God's goodness....He is good all the time -- but I don't always see it right away!
Land of the living....not before death, not in heaven, NOW and while I am here!
Memorize that verse....it may get you thru what ails you!
