Faithful To Me
April 11th, 2022
Psalm 116:1-6
I came to worship that night, empty. The job I’d hoped for had fallen through, as had dozens before it. I’d had plans which had been ruined. I’d had dreams which had been diverted. I was miserable.
I sat there, speechless, prayer-less. What would I say to God anyway? I pictured two empty hands in front of me, palms up. I thought, “Those are my hands. I have nothing to offer.” There was my cry, weak, barely a whisper. God replied, “Good, now I can use you.”
This was my lowest. The following months were a journey unto themselves. The ache of personal failure I felt began to subside as He helped me forgive myself. I began to trust as God proved over and over, He is not just unfathomably faithful as a concept. He proved that He is unfathomably faith to me.
When the worries tempt and the troubles torment, it is not a mountain top, but a valley, which reminds me that God sees me. I cried out to Him, and He heard me. He rescued me. I had nothing to offer, and God gave me himself.
