David had reached his breaking point. \u2018I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.\u2019<\/i> (Psalm 27:13 NKJV) Can you identify? <\/p>\n
Have you reached your breaking point? If so, you have two options: break down or break through. It all depends on what you do. There\u2019s an old saying, \u2018The same sunshine that melts the butter hardens the clay.\u2019 When trouble comes, you can either turn against God because you served Him and don\u2019t understand why He\u2019s allowing it, or turn to Him for strength and understanding. That\u2019s why what David says next is so important: \u2018Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart.\u2019<\/i> <\/p>\n
Sometimes God changes our circumstances; other times He uses them to strengthen us. Try to understand this. It\u2019s not just about you,<\/i> but those God wants to reach through<\/i> you. \u2018He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.\u2019<\/i> (2 Corinthians 1:4 NLT)<\/p>\n
Nothing catches God off guard, and nothing\u2019s too hard for Him to handle. The situation you\u2019re in right now can become a platform for Him to demonstrate His love and care for you. \u2018The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning. I say to myself, \u201cThe Lord is my inheritance; therefore I will hope in Him!\u201d The Lord is good to those who depend on Him.\u2019<\/i> (Lamentations 3:22\u201325 NLT)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
