Psalm 139:14
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
Several weeks ago, my wife and I went to one of the showings of 'BreakThrough'. We were moved by tears when the son who was thought dead came back to life after he had been without oxygen longer than medical science says is possible. Next week at this time my wife will have completed the first chemotherapy using the 'standard of care' regimen of drugs designed to eradicate the cancerous tumor. The experimental drug route they tried didn't work out in her case.. I'm thankful the head Oncologist recognized it didn't work as hoped and shifted the treatment strategy. We are still believing that a miracle will take place through this latest medical intervention.
Jesus Christ is the author of our faith. Each of you was uniquely and wonderfully made in your mother's womb. When God formed you, he was beginning to pen your story so the world may know you are His. As you sojourn life's highway, your story will inspire others to come to Christ through foreseen and unforeseen circumstances. Through circumstances thought to be so horrible that the world cannot comprehend.
The death of a child? God will walk with you through the darkest of days while drawing you to the verses that inspire-the bible.
Permanent disability? He will make that verse come alive in your life:
As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”“Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. (Nothing is truly impossible with God)
The death of a family member? Jesus will walk with your through the darkest hour while helping you cherish the memory of the one who died.
The loss of a job? He will remind you that just as a door closes on one career, he will help find the open passageway into your next one.
As we travel through these uncertain days, my wife and I cling to the author and perfector of our faith that inspires us to go forward trusting God for all circumstances just as this verse reminds us: For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7
No matter what you may be experiencing today, or in the coming weeks, you can trust God through your circumstances because you are uniquely and wonderfully made!
