The next few days' posts are going to be simple verses that have really made an impact on me during this past week. I think everybody can take something away from them and live their life more accordingly to how God wants us to by focusing on what the verse really has to say.
'Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him.'
[Psalm 32:10]
15. May 2010 Edit:
A woe could be distress, regret, grief... it could be announced upon someone, or it could be a personal feeling one has. I think that we would be less likely to say "Woe is me!" if we were to realize that the things which cause us to feel woe... don't matter. Lose your job? Work for God's kingdom. Break up with your significant other? Strengthen your relationship with God. God is with you, always. He loves you, always. But how does it make Him feel when He is not loved in return? When He is not trusted? If anyone has reason to say "Woe is me!" it is Him, because so many of His beloved children have been lost forever because they do not listen. They do not repent. They do not believe. And the list goes on... Granted, He doesn't need us. But we need Him. Too often we don't realize that as early on as we should... Anyway, isn't it nice to feel needed?
