Regardless of what any of us may be going through, it is always a good reminder to find solace in God’s Word. This morning I am finding balance in David’s 57th Psalm.
Balance? Yes, balance.
My family’s world was rocked to its core on November 16th. Since then, I have had trouble finding my balance again.
First, that fateful night, when I heard the words from the Chief of police that I never would have imagined I would ever hear being said to myself.
Then there were her children to see after.
A funeral to plan.
Monument to order.
Court hearing for legal guardianship of Faith’s children.
And then I remembered…one month later…that I still hadn’t sent thank you cards. (If you haven’t received one it isn’t because you are not appreciated. Please forgive me.)
I truly usually am more on top of things. But in this last month, I have felt like I am teetering on a scary precipice between holding it together and losing myself in the abyss of grief.
It is in these very moments when morning devotionals are critical. Not only to my spiritual health, but to my mental and physical health as well.
Morning devotions are a time to recenter and find my balance once again. It’s a time to remind myself of God’s goodness and mercy in my life.
Despite everything. God is good. His love is everlasting. He will never leave me.
I am so thankful I serve such a kind, understanding, and faithful Father! Do you know Him?
