I am grateful that God never lets His children down. Today I am claiming the promise of God's faithfulness, while in the midst of disappointment and uncertainty.
After a post-op check with my son's surgeon we were told that he needs to have another surgery to scrape out scar tissue that seems to be hindering his recovery. Not what we were expecting at all! The look on his face and the disappointment in his eyes was enough to almost reduce me to tears.
What do you do when, even after doing all the right things, things go wrong? The only answer I can come up with is TRUST. My heart is inclined to have a major meltdown---but the words "TRUST ME" are reverberating through my heart and mind, as if God has placed a recording of His own voice inside of me.
I believe that God is sovereign. I believe that God is good....ALL the time. I believe that God is continually using the circumstances (good & bad) in our lives to grow us, change us, to work all things together for our benefit and to bring us to deeper places of trust with Him. Is there anything too hard for Him? He is the One who laid the foundation of the world. He is able to see us through anything this life throws at us.
"Those who know Your name trust in You, for You, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek You." ~ Psalm 9:10
