| Sometimes it is difficult to get our hearts around the truth that no matter what our circumstances may be, God is worthy of our praise. No matter what we may be going through, whether good or bad, prospering or experiencing adversity there is great comfort in knowing that God is the same , unchanging and ever present. He is a loving, kind helpful, giving and forgiving God. He uses everything that comes into our lives to shape us to look, sound and act more like Jesus. He truly works all things for our good and His glory. That is called compassion.
Compassion is recognizing the suffering of others and then taking action to help . Because God is sovereign, He knows all things. He knows of our storms and victories, our hurts and fears, and He searches our hearts and knows exactly where we are in our faith journey. He is willing to help us for times of suffering. However, for us to fully comprehend His great compassion, there are some things we must remember;
We must be teachable. There is something to learned through every trial we face. God wants us to look to Him, listen to Him, and live in such a way that honors Him.
We must praise Him for His compassion. We recognize where He brought us from and what He is doing in our lives. This results in worship.
We must share our hearts with Him. We are to be transparent, because He loves us and cares about what we are experiencing.
We must depend on Him and ask God to see us through our trials. When we confess our trust in and dependence on Him for help and comfort, He provides us with the strength we need.
Psalm 86:11-17 Teach my Your way , O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; united my heart to fear Your name. I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and I will glorify Your name forevermore. For great is Your mercy toward me, and You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol. O God, the proud have risen against me, and a mob of violent men have sought my life, and have not set You before them. But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, Longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth. Oh, turn to me, and have mercy on me! Give Your strength to Your servant, and save the son of Your maidservant . Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it and be ashamed, Because You, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
FOR IT IS WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.
HAVE A VERY BLESSED COMPASSIONITE WEDNESDAY  |
