When trouble comes your way

I waited patiently for the LORD, And He inclined to me, And heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. Psalm 40:1-2

I suggest reading the Psalms regularly, especially the Psalms of King David, whom God called “a man after my own heart.” I herein share one of my evening devotional readings noting a Davidic Psalm from Dr. David Jeremiah:

King David knew something about suffering, particularly suffering caused by his own actions. But he also knew to whom he could turn during those times of trouble.

What great comfort and joy come to us when we understand that God is rich in grace and mercy and forgives, restores, and redeems! The Lord lifts us from our personal pits of despair and puts us in right standing with Him, transforming our lives in ways we could never imagine.

When times of trouble arrive—even trouble we bring on ourselves—we must turn to God and wait patiently for His help. He’ll never fail us. Remember these truths about the God you serve, then proclaim them to everyone who will hear. It’s our responsibility and privilege to share God’s truths with others, empowering them to find hope and comfort in Him.
