"Will the Lord reject forever?
Will he never show his favor again?
Has his unfailing love vanished forever?
Has his promise failed for all time?
Has God forgotten to be merciful?
Has he in anger withheld his compassion?"
- Psalm 77:7-9 (TNIV)
At the same time, it seems easier to depend on God when we're down and out. It's more natural for us to cry out to Him when we feel deserted and alone. But the truth is that we need God every single day, even just for the littlest things. Think about it: What would you have without the goodness and grace of God?
We have so much to be thankful for and to be amazed by but instead, we complain and whine and ask why God has left us. He never leaves! Never. Even when we don't have the strength to carry on, He's right there and is in full control of the situation, whether we think so or not. Our God is worthy to be praised through all circumstances because we depend on him for life and he sustains us every day.
"I will remember the deeds of the LORD;
yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
I will meditate on all your works
and consider all your mighty deeds.
Your ways, O God, are holy.
What god is so great as our God?"
- Psalm 77:11-13 (NIV)
