No problem is too big for God.

Devotion for the day
Psalm 146:8 says: The Lord loves the righteous.

Human problems are never greater than divine solutions. Erwin W. Lutzer

I like to have a cup of hot tea before I go to work. As I was making my tea I observed that its real strength comes out when it gets into hot water.

When difficulties come our way, we often ask God to remove them so we can be happy again. And sometimes He does rescue us from the troubles that bring us to our knees.

But many times He doesn’t. Often the hard times just keep coming. And when they do, we need to readjust out thinking and planning. Instead of letting those trails turn us away from God, we should seek to have them lead us to trust Him even more. Which reminds me of a Chinese Proverb: A gem is not polished without rubbing, nor a man and woman made perfect without trials.

When life seems like pits, I advice you to read Psalm 146 and remind yourself of these eternal truths: God is our help (v.5), God executes justice v.7), God loves the righteous (v.8), God helps the helpless (v.9), God over-turns the wicked (v.9), God reigns (v.10)

Dear friend do you feel like you’re in the pits? Don’t forget the sweetness of knowing that God guarantees true happiness to those who trust in Him
No problem is too big for God.

To avoid the PITS remember: Pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
Imitate Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1)
Thank God continually (1 Thessalonians 2:13)
Seek the Lord (Psalm 34:1-10)

Have a Blessed Day
