Psalms Chapter 80
Trusting God Through the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly!
Here are some quotes from this chapter.
“Hear us, Shepherd of Israel…come and save us… Restore us, O God… How long, Lord God Almighty, will your anger smolder against the prayers of your people?… Return to us, God Almighty!”
Sometimes God allows us to go through difficult life circumstances, not because he wants to discipline us, but as a test to our faith and faithfulness to him. Do unfortunate Life experiences draw you closer to God or push you away?
Sometimes God allows us to go through difficult situations because we are in need of discipline. We have failed to stay devoted to him and have allowed temptations in this world to captivate our hearts.
Regardless of the circumstances, may I challenge you to stay faithful. I challenge you to confess and repent of any sins. God promises to never leave us nor forsake us. Keep calling out to God for help for and in due time he will restore you. Trust him through the good, and the bad, and the ugliness of life. He loves you!
