God Understands

God Understands:

"He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. He counts the stars and calls them all by name. How great is our Lord! His power is absolute! His understanding is beyond comprehension!" (Psalms 147:3-5)

The world and all its troubles are pressing hard upon your shoulders. The dark storm clouds seem as though they'll never clear away. The ache you feel within grows deeper and deeper still, yet His love shall never be removed. No, His love for us will never be weakened. God sees every wounded soul and every broken heart, and He understands. His understanding is far beyond our comprehension. He sees the hurt we feel, and He's been there too.

"It’s obvious, of course, that he didn’t go to all this trouble for angels. It was for people like us, children of Abraham. That’s why he had to enter into every detail of human life. Then, when he came before God as high priest to get rid of the people’s sins, he would have already experienced it all himself—all the pain, all the testing—and would be able to help where help was needed." (Hebrews 2:16-18 MSG)

No matter what you're facing today, keep this truth at the forefront of your mind: God understands, and He's not going to abandon you. You haven't failed Him. You haven't let Him down. Simply let your walls down, let His Presence envelope you, and embrace this time of letting Him rejoice over you. It takes no efforts on our part but the fight for surrender... Surrender and release... Release all into His hands. He won't let us down, nor will He ever let us go. He is good. He is faithful. He will carry us through. He is with us still.
