For The Moment…108

All thanks and praise belong to God.

He is worthy to be praised from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same.

When we are in health and have good times before us, and things are going smoothly, it is easy to praise the Lord.

When things are going badly. When the medical report is poor. When there is no money to pay all the bills. When the boss hates you. When everything at work is wrong, it is hard to sing praise.

But Job said, “Although he slay me yet will I trust him.”

To come to this realization is a big step of faith. But  like Job can we take that step?

It is all a matter of trust. It’s a matter of turning your eyes upon Jesus and to look in his face and not at the problem.

Yes, humanly speaking, it is hard, but if we dig deep and think about what lies before us, the choice is easy.

Remember, he is God.

Under the name Francis Lee, I write interracial Christian romantic suspense. My stories are about finding enduring love when hope and redemption seem unattainable as danger lurks around every corner. My characters learn that where there is darkness, "joy will always come in the morning".
