How can we be thankful during difficult times? When our world is falling apart… When we have more questions than answers… When bad things happen to good people… When evil seems to be gaining ground… When your retirement savings are gone and you still have many years to live… When your medical coverage has come to an end and you’ve found no relief… When the doctor says its terminal… When the phone rings in the middle of night and the news is much worse than you could ever image… When life is hard, when there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel, where do we turn? How can we be thankful during difficult times? The Bible teaches us that we can trust in God. Psalm 46 reminds us that God is our strength and our refuge - our place of security and safety. Everything else WILL fall away at one time or another. Health, Wealth, Job Security, Family and Friends. But not God. All else may forsake, but God will not. All else may collapse but God won’t. No one knows what tomorrow will bring. In life there is only One who is constant, who is firm, who is secure. Our God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. His promises can be ours today! How can we be thankful during difficult times? Only when we recognize that God is our only source of strength and refuge - He is our only security in this life and the one to come.
