Bad day? Tough news? Sad times? Those days can be clogged full of despair. Lord, where are you? Where are you in the midst of the grief of the death of a loved one? Where are you when you hear the sad news of a friend?
What do you say? “Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.” Psalm 31:24
Hope. Strength, heart, hope. A friend heard some bad news this week. Her bad news brought forth concern for her and her family, wondering what the days ahead will hold. Then, I saw this – “Be strong, take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.”
Be strong – relying on God’s strength, unexplainable peace and joy can fill us. It’s not a silly giddy type of laughter, but a deep and intense reliance upon God. With that, my spirit takes heart. It takes motivation, movement, and hope. Yes – hope! We will keep our hope. We will keep this through reliance upon God.
