Sometimes life doles out the most difficult circumstances. Crucial. Threatening. An innocent action coupled with foolishness can be one's undoing. Consequences may loom that has one quake in fear of the unknown. The pit can be so wide and deep the possibility of getting out of it is beyond any control or ability we may assume we have. We can only bow our heads, bend our knees and pray for mercy. Like Joseph, sometimes what others mean for evil, God means for good.
Sovereignty. God is in control. Always. Sometimes He simply wants to remind us that only He can make the difference in our lives. Sometimes He wants to show us how much He truly loves us and hears our pleas for His divine intervention. When our stupidity leads us to the edge of an abyss, He indeed holds our hand when we slip and stumble.
I stand amazed at the mercy of God. Over and over again, He pours out mercy when we deserve none. I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever. May I continue to offer to others what God so readily gives me and mine. May we give Him all praise for every detail of our lives. Every single detail.
Thank You, Lord, for friends who pray when I need them.
Thank You for Your constant love and goodness.
Thank You for Your intervention and mercy. selahV
