Stayed Upon Our God

BIBLE MEDITATION:
“Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of His servant...let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God.” Isaiah 50:10

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I have always been amazed at the advice that worldly people give to someone who is hurting. “When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on!” Can you see someone dangling over a cliff, holding on to a rope, and trying to tie a knot? It takes two hands to do that! The first thing we need to remember is “don’t demand to understand.” There are just some things in life you and I will never understand. When God allows darkness to overshadow your life, don’t light your own fire. That’s a recipe for heartache. Trust that His light will come and wait for it. He will come. Believe it.

ACTION POINT:
There’s someone out there who is hurting today and needs more than a pat answer of encouragement. Give them the light of Christ.
