“耶和华为我们行了大事，我们就欢喜。”
诗篇 126:3
“The LORD has done great things for us; We are glad.”
Psalms 126:3
James's son wrestled with drug addiction for seven years, and during that time both he and his wife experienced many difficult days. As they prayed and waited for his recovery, they learned to celebrate small victories. If nothing bad happened in a twenty-four-hour period, they would tell each other, “Today was a good day.” That short sentence became a reminder to be thankful for God’s help with the smallest things.
The difficulties of any given day cannot change the truth that come what may, our Lord has already shown us unfathomable kindness, and “His love endures forever” (Ps. 136:1).
When we have lived through a difficult circumstance and discovered that God was faithful, keeping that in mind helps greatly the next time life’s waters turn rough. We may not know how God will get us through our circumstances, but His kindness to us in the past helps us trust that He will.
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end, our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. Robert Grant
When we cannot see God’s hand, we can trust His heart.
