a reminder from the Lord


Things are tough right now.
There are unanswered questions.
The path is not well marked
and the way is not clear.

It could be is easy to get discouraged and wonder
"why, Lord?"
But I am reminded of this verse,

"And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you."
Psalm 9:10 

And what is His name?

Protector
Joy-Giver
Provider
Counselor
Strength
Comforter
Healer
Friend
just to name a few.

He says, "I AM."
So I will remember His promises.

In the storm
He says, 
"I AM your Shelter."

In the drought,
"I AM your Refreshing."

In the confusion,
"I AM your Wisdom."

In the fear,
"I AM your Consolation."

I have expereinced Him to be all these things.
So I will trust Him once again
to be who He says He is.
After all, He is Good.
