Dear Missionary Lady,
Greetings in the name of the God who rescues. God sees His children in their need, and He does what is necessary to help them. Face it, life is not always perfect.
Sometimes we fall. We don’t have the strength to go on, or we trip over something in our path.
“The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down” (Psalm 145:14).
Sometimes we’re hungry. Our souls cry out for something to sustain and satisfy us.
“The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season. Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing” (Psalm 145:15-16).
Sometimes we’re in trouble. Life just isn’t going well. We are being oppressed, pursued, attacked, overwhelmed.
“The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them. The LORD preserveth all them that love him” (Psalm 145:18-20a).
When life isn’t all roses, God is the answer. When life is filled with struggles, God is the One who can help. By the way, do you realize how many times the words “all” and “every” are in the above verses? (6 and 1, by my count)
How grateful I am for the God who is perfect in my imperfect world. May He meet whatever needs you have this week. God bless.
Love in Christ,
Peggy Holt
