I pray that we never forget all the Lord has done for us, especially in moments when we feel forsaken, our prayers seem unanswered, or life is falling apart. Amen. I hope and pray we remember the goodness of the Lord, as Psalm 34:1-22 encourages us. When we look back over our lives, we can see just how much God has done for us.

The enemy wants us to think that God has forsaken us, that He’s too busy, doesn’t hear us, or even remembers us. We might think our prayers are foolish and wonder, “What’s the use?” Amen. But we must not grow weary in doing good, for we will reap a harvest if we do not give up, as Galatians 6:9 tells us. Amen. God hears us and has not, nor will He ever, forsake us (Hebrews 13:5-6, Deuteronomy 31:6). We may go through rough patches and feel lost, but we can rest and trust in Jesus. Even when we don’t understand, we can rest knowing that God is with us and has a special place designed just for us—a place where we fit in, thrive, and flourish. Amen.

God directs and guides us, so wherever we are, we trust and believe it is where He intends us to be. Never feel alone or think, even for a moment, that God has turned His back on you. That is not true. The Lord never promised things wouldn’t form against us, but He did promise they would not prosper. Amen. We’re not staying where we are; we’re moving through this place, wherever it may be, daily. Amen. So, we hold on, trust God, renew our minds (Romans 12:2), and overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony (Revelation 12:11). Amen.

We serve a great and wonderful God, who has tremendous things in store for us. Keep on keeping on, don’t give up, and don’t grow weary. It is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I ask and pray. Amen and Amen. Be blessed today, my dear sweet friends. Remember, wherever you go and whatever you do, be a light for our Father. Much love to you all. Mandi
