Beautiful Reflections Excerpt (2 of 70 verses)

THE LORD IS YOUR PROVIDER

The picture of the shepherd taking care of sheep is an image of Christ looking after his people. The shepherd finds pasture and water for the sheep, protects them from wild beasts and binds up their wounds when they get hurt. The shepherd is entirely responsible for the well-being of his sheep: at no time do they have to be concerned about what they may require.

From our perspective, the Lord will take care of our needs; both the spiritual and physical. The Lord will protect us from all evil, and he will comfort and heal us from our affliction. The important thing to note is that the sheep ‘trust’ their shepherd to take care of them and go wherever they are led.

Therefore, we must likewise put our trust in Christ our Shepherd even when we do not quite understand where he is leading us. In those times that the journey seems too long, when his timing feels delayed, when the result of our obedience is suffering and when we just cannot figure out his ways we need to simply trust.

THE MORNING WILL COME

The morning always follows the night. Even if the dark period of our lives seems to be lasting much longer than we expected, we must believe that our morning will come. The gloom will end and God will fill you with new joy. As much as we do not like these dark seasons, God uses them to make us grow but they are not meant to last. They are just meant to build our faith in him and teach us that we can rely on him.

Furthermore it is him preparing us to be able to minister to others. What we experience and learn in these hard times is what we shall use to encourage others.
Hold on, the morning will come.
